The magic word for parking a motorcycle in a place destined for cars: lack of discipline.............So typical PH behavior.

 

If only it were the case that all of us were suited to driving motorcycles ... unfortunately not an option for many, so your statement is not a counter argument that reflects reality. I am glad to see all of those motorcycles, if even a fourth of them were cars the situation would be impossible. But the motorcycle drivers need to recognize that they have lots of parking options available and so please don't take away the extremely limited options the cars have. Just today I saw a motorcycle parked sideways in a car parking area taking up two car parking places when there was a motorcycle parking area available.

 

It's not the motorcycles that are the problem, it's some of the people who drive them. At many places they have a large motorcycle parking area and then limited maybe two or three spaces for cars ... for example at Polaris. I don't know how many times I've wanted to park my car only to find a motorcycle parked right in the center of one of the car parking spaces when there was plenty of space available in the designated motorcycle parking area.

 

Would not park my personal vehicle within a multi story parking garage designed and built by the same contractor that built the current mall.

 

Just to prove the point that motorcycle drivers are not always getting away with parking wherever they want - I got a little yellow ticket this morning informing me that the sidewalk parking fee is due for payment at City Hall :/

 

Parking is one big problem in Dumaguete now. The proliferation of motorcycles and pedicabs have worsened the situation. Sometimes, they give more priority to motorcycles, I do not know why and you see these motorcycles parking right on the sides of the streets.The city government needs to do something about this parking problem.

 

Happens once a year that the Hypermart car park get Basketball/Volleyball lines drawn on it as Lee Plaza has competitions for the staff that want to participate - only after store hours of course.

 

I suspect that the Pajero got there first.

 

This looks like considerate car parking, instead of taking up the three allocated spaces they have left half a space, (room for at least 2 motorbikes lol)
