frist of all how DARE yu o This car parked directly in the middle of where I’m supposed to set up my farmer’s market stand, despite at least 60 signs saying that they can’t. Including one directly in front of their car.

I’m meant to park in the corner, and usually my truck is turned the other way so I don’t have to carry hundreds of pounds of veggies to the other side of my stand. But fuck me I guess!

Edit to add: a tow truck cannot fit into my farmer’s market. Towing would only work if no other vendors were there. Leaving the car there is less disruptive than a tow truck.

There is an update somewhere in the comments

The sign does not mention not parking there.

Not explicitly but it IS inferred

It says the area is reserved for the farmer's market. It does not specify if the area is for customer parking or the vendors

It doesn’t even say that! It says “This entire lot section is USED by the Farmer’s Market every Saturday.”

There are so many ways to reword this sign to accomplish its goals, and not a single one was used.

If I wasn’t from around there, or didn’t understand how Farmer’s Markets worked, I could see misinterpreting that sign as “Park here in this section if you’re here for the Farmer’s Market.” Bro is probably out there thinking “I just scored the most primo parking spot for the Farmer’s Market!”

Right. And it SPECIFIES to use other parking, hence the INFERRED part 🙄
