In a busy city where vacant parking spaces are few and far between, Gulf News reader Samer Ashour was frustrated to find people parking inconsiderately.

He snapped this photograph in Discovery Gardens in Dubai. Ashour said: "We have very limited parking spaces in the area. If many people began parking in this manner, what would the rest of us do?" He said he has noticed such thoughtless practices around the city and urged people to be more considerate.
