Today, I spent five minutes waiting by a stop sign. The two cars in front of me were taking a long time to move, so I began beeping and getting angry. Turns out, these cars were parked and I was holding up a line of traffic. FML

Today, I was in a hurry to get to work. I pulled impatiently behind a long line of cars to make a right hand turn. I sat there for 5 minutes. Turns out there wasn't a line to make a right hand turn. I had been waiting behind a line of parked cars. FML

Today, I was stuck in stand-still traffic for 5 minutes, before realizing I had stopped behind a parked car. FML

Today, I was waiting in line for breakfast at the McDonald's drive-thru. After getting so fed up that the line hadn't budged for 10 mins, I pulled out of the line, only to realize I was waiting behind 2 parked cars that were just to the left of the drive-thru lane. FML

Today, I pulled up to an intersection behind a car waiting to turn left and we missed a whole set of lights. As I was getting frustrated that they weren’t going when the light was green, I realised I was waiting behind a parked car. FML

Today, I was first in line at a stoplight. After five minutes, with a line of cars behind me, the light was still red. People behind me started honking, so I decided to just go. Halfway across the way, I was greeted by a camera flash. Nobody else went. FML

Today, I got really annoyed waiting for a bus that was supposed to come every 10 minutes. After a few minutes of waiting, I realized the "bus stop" was really a no parking sign. FML

Today, my car horn got some sort of short and started beeping every 20 seconds or so. On the way to get it fixed, I got stuck in bumper to bumper traffic. Behind a cop car. FML

Today, I was sitting at a traffic light when a cute girl appeared at the side of the road. I sat and watched her until she had crossed, when I realised that I had missed the light. A large queue of cars had built up behind me, yet none of them used their horn because I was driving my police car. FML

Today, I was stuck in what I thought was traffic on my way home from work. I started weaving in and out of traffic because it seemed to only be a few cars holding up the line. I get to the front of the line and I'd realized I just weaved through a funeral procession. FML

Today, I was driving home from work and noticed the car behind me was tailgating me pretty badly. I was starting to get angry with the driver, and kept glancing in my rear view mirror at him. While I was doing so, the traffic ahead of me stopped, and I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

YDI for not seeing there were no drivers. Not to mention I doubt these cars were parked in the middle of the road...

I'm gonna have to call bulls**t on this one. 1) It's illegal to park on the street close enough to a stop sign for this to be true. 2) Even if people were parked that close to a stop sign, they would be parked on the SIDE of the road. 3) Even if OP is retarded enough to pull behind parked cars, I highly doubt a whole line of people behind her were equally retarded. LAWYERED!

1. It still happens. I ******* hate that shit because some asshole does it all the time at my usual route. 2. It's a woman driver! Just kidding, but maybe the road is narrow or the cars have tinted back windows and she thought they were taking a right. 3. I guess she's an idiot driver that blocks both lanes instead of moving her ass over.

Okay, it's still 99.9% her fault but will give her 0.1% of it being not her fault. How can you not tell if a car is parked? No lights, no driver, no noise, no movement at all, hell... I doubt they parked in the middle of the road(AND It was 2 cars, which makes it more obvious), and who knows really maybe they weren't that close to the stop sign. BTW, it's 30 feet from a stop sign, not 100 feet(might be 100 where you live though).
