Compact Car Only or unless you can't read

These spaces in north Wilmington are notoriously small, so they are correctly labelled "Compact Car Only". I can only conclude that adult illiteracy is still a big problem as the driver of this black pickup truck has failed to follow these instructions. The act is made more agregious by the fact that his tailget has one of those extensions on it, filled with sod, that only makes the truck even longer and more inappropriate for the space. If a car had parked on the other side, though I am not sure how they could, no one could have entered or exited the parking lot.

The alternative to them being illiterate is that they are a jerk. What do you think?
