Well, I have unfortunately had to rent an ECV in the past and probably will this trip as well.
I can't parallel park my car worth beans (well I can now that I have park assist that does it for me), what would make anyone think that I should be able to parallel park an ECV?
That being said, I always try to be courteous, but people will walk 2 feet in front of you and stop or walk inches in front of you. They forget that an object in motion will stay in motion until acted upon by an outside force. Yes, the
ECVs will stop, but they will not stop instantly and that is due to the laws of physics and to a certain extent by design to help prevent injuring the driver, as a sudden stop could cause back or other injuries.
But my all time favorite is when you are parked off to the side of a walkway, out of the way, not moving and someone runs into you and starts cussing you out. Come one, I was stationary, you were moving.
Not saying there aren't rude and/or inexperienced ECV drivers out there, there are and I have been the victim of them more than once, but 90% are decent.
