Transgressions that become more obvious as the context changes – the parking equivilent of saying the punchline to a rude joke just as the room goes quiet.

Today’s notion of car parking changes when the roads are full of autonomous vehicles – if yours can’t find a parking space it simply cruises the neighbourhood until required by its owner (along of course with the rest of the driver-less vehicles – boy that will be a quality-of-life kind of neighbourhood to hang out in). When gridlock is merely an ad-hoc car park who has a vested interest and power to create then dissapate gridlock?
