Oh god, my sides
Honestly can't really be sympathetic when Russian driving/parking really is naturally fucked. It's a systematic issue that putting stickers on people's cars won't do jackshit at all.
Also I don't know if you ever had to remove one of those types of stickers, but it's one of the shittiest things ever.
Just both sides being douchebags really.
Jesus christ, the end where the wiper blade sticks down the sticker, I'm dying.
Two things:
1. Driving? It's about parking.
2. The problem lies way deeper. There's just not enough spaces for everyone to park in big cities like Moscow or St. Petersburg. They were never meant to house so many fucking cars. In fact, Moscow started to fight it by introducing paid parking pretty much everywhere but the outskirts (correct me if I'm wrong).
If your destination is somewhere close to the center (be it your workplace or one time event), you're better off using public transport both for the sake of yourself (so you don't have to waste half an hour finding a place to park, then more time by walking to your destination) and others (so your car doesn't block traffic or other parked cars if you didn't care to find a proper parking spot).
But, since a large part of a population was raised to be an egotistic asshole, you see things like this happening everywhere. I do it as well, albeit only when I have to leave for no more than 10-15 minutes, and I always leave a note with my phone number so if I am blocking someone he can just call me and I'll return.

1. I did mention parking?
2. I agree with you completely, but then you have to understand what I mean when I say that putting on those stickers (that can legit cause damage while removing) isn't going to solve a problem that is systemically fucked.
I wonder if this ever happens enough that a street is simply impossible to traverse from one or both directions.

There are quite a lot moments in their videos where people say they won't use parking lot because [B][I]it costs money[/I][/B].

Oh I didn't even think about the title of the video. Just figured he was making points at me since thee was no one else.

I dunno considering most of their videos people are literally driving on the fucking sidewalks I reckon that type of shit is unacceptable.
I still don't think slapping a giant sticker on their windshield is the best way to go about fixing it.
Those stickers have fucking superpowers damn
I'm glad people like tis get called out. I got double-parked recently and the douche didn't even apologize just ran into his car an almost ran us over trying to leave.
Dude, I've been watching these videos all day. Fucking russians are crazy bruh.

I've seen someone triple park before
it wasn't even a truck it was a fucking tiny car with huge wheels and the windows down

Where do they get such sticky stickers? The only way I'd think to get them off is with naptha

It's not. But at least one person will think harder before being an asshole about parking their piece of shit next time. It's tough as it is, without idiots blocking everything/leaving their car almost in the middle of the road for everyone else to have to go around it (no joke, I deal with this shit every day, and I live in a city much, much lighter in traffic than Moscow).

Unfortunately jurisdically it will make a fuckload of problems for little payoff, and scratching off paint or knifing down tyres is criminal activity.
