hahah I saw this the other day! I say, good for him! Although that is extremelyy frustrating to other drivers looking for a space, this guy was probably just trying to avoid some idiot parking right on top of him and denting/dinging/chipping the doors when getting out of their over sized, planet polluting, crookedly parked SUV.

How I feel about seeing a space splitter depends on the context. If it's far from available prime parking spaces, I don't cringe. That may be the case here. Needs motorcycles parked on each side.

Is that a Virginia Tech sticker (VT) on the left side of the bumper?

No, it's not my MINI. I don't split spaces, even when parking far out.

Damn! That's a Virginia plate on that MINI! At least they don't have a www.hrmini.com sticker! Thank God!

Does look like a VT sticker. Probably a UVA grad trying to look cool with a MINI and VT sticker, but their parking ability gives them away!
