There’s a new thing to fear in the school parking lot. Recently, on Instagram, a new account has appeared titled @nnhs_badparking. It has grown rapidly, gaining over 500 followers in 2 weeks. The username explains everything that you need to know. The account showcases several different cases of bad parking every day, from parking on the line, parking crooked, people parking in handicapped spots, and people parking in places that aren’t even spots (shown below). Typically the account even gives the cars a rating out of ten based on how bad the parking job is. If you ever see any terrible parking jobs out in the commons or athletic parking lot, the account takes submissions, so all you have to do is just send a direct message to the account with a picture, and you might have a chance of it getting featured.

We went to the account owner, who wanted to remain anonymous, to ask why they decided to start the account. They said, “I was inspired by the success Edmond North’s account had. I also felt it could be a fun way to laugh at student driving and improve parking at [Norman] North.”

Hopefully the account will succeed in its goal of inciting fear in drivers across Norman North.
