These guys were told back-in parking was prohibited at their car park so they made a car with two fronts to see the attendant's reaction
- This US parking lot banned backing into spaces
- So, one YouTuber found a way to side-step the rule
- Will he get off on his technicality?

If you come across a seemingly inane rule then a workaround is the ultimate revenge without breaking the rules – take this US parking lot, for example.
It was prohibited for cars to back into spaces.
So one YouTuber found a hilarious way to side-step the rule.
He’s abiding by the rules albeit on a technicality that will leave the parking attendant scratching his head.

The parking workaround
After being issued a ticket for backing into a space, prankster and YouTuber personality, Ross Creations, of Vlog Creations, was looking for a way to flout the rules.
In the skit, he seemingly gets into his car and goes to purchase two vehicles.
Back in the workshop, he and his team get straight to work – splicing each car straight down the middle before disposing of the back ends.
After disposing of one engine, they weld the two back halves together to create a Franken-car like nothing you’ve seen before.
Similar double-take vehicles include this stretched Volkswagen that’s so wide its builder has to regularly clarify it’s not Photoshopped.
Similarly, this 1993 Humvee has been chopped, dropped, and swapped to be wider than looks normal, too.
The prank
While one engine is AWOL, the driver sitting in the seat traveling backward makes that arguably the front of the car, too.
So when the car drives into the space? Technically it hasn’t backed in.
No ticket necessary.
“I’ve never seen something like that, ever. How does that work?” asks one bystander.
Others stop or slow their vehicles to capture photos and footage of the bizarre vehicle.
“Did they back in or pull in?” asks one passerby.
“Pull in because it’s illegal to back in,” a second confirms.
As hilarity ensues from a safe distance for the YouTubing team, the attendant looks confused and captures a photo, presumably sending it to their supervisor before driving away.
No ticket issued: point made.
