Mercedes Parking Lights
The use of hazard lights / four-way-flashes in order to park absolutely anywhere. It doesn't matter if the spot is double-yellow lines, has no room to fit a car, or is a busy highway intersection.

"I really need to go into this store, but the nearest car park is over a minute's walk away. I'll just pull over in the middle of the road and use my Mercedes Parking Lights. They let me park wherever I want."

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue?
