Saw this at my local Tesco (Norwich) recently. I suppose they win the "I'm bigger than you are, so I can do what I b****y well like" argument.

They probably also park in disabled parking spaces. What a moron.

Let a tyre down? Leaving a note obviously for safety reasons

Hmmm! May invest in some of those. In the meantime I've uploaded the photo to https://yplac.co.uk/
Won't have any effect, but makes me feel better!

Maybe being registered as a hybrid they think they can park there? Some people are a bit dense ....

I nearly challenged a Range Rover driver for ICEing, until I noticed it was Plugged In, and the driver/owner was “rather nice” Apparently she too had waited a long time to get her new car

Also the EV bays @Tesco are often “near the store entrance” so a favourite spot for a quick dash to pick up a Meal Deal.

This wasn't a hybrid, and in any case it wasn't plugged in!

According to its reg it is a normal (non phev) hybrid at Tesco's in Shaftesbury there is a outlander regularly plugged in and finished? charging, and still there when I come out, is that okay it's plugged in but not charging?

I just think a lot of people are thick or cheeky thinking they can get away with it.

The trouble is these have been approached with people following etiquette rather than hard rigid enforced rules.

For instance trolley staff could photo offending vehicle in charge point then management in-store can issue a fine?

Hefty enough to dissuade people doing it again.

This is a good thing. I always wonder why so many car parks have charge points so far from the store/building. If you’re a disabled EV driver, are you supposed to chose between charging and actually being able to get into the store? It also makes no sense from a logistics standpoint, since invariably the power cable is connected back to somewhere in the main building.
At my local Waitrose the charge points are about as far from the shop as they could get them!
