Oh my god that one black car is slightly crooked and it’s all I can focus on.

u/Singularitysong 4d ago

Im more bothered by the white car that is taking up 2 spots tbh.

261

u/Trace-Elliott 4d ago

The railing on the right is thicker, suggests a 4th car wouldn't fit anyway.

41

u/harderthanitllooks 4d ago

Even if it did fit, the driver would be stuck in The car the whole trip.

21

u/GoldberryoTulgeyWood 4d ago

They all are!

26

u/DD_Spudman 4d ago

I thought that too at first but watching it again you can clearly see people are parking their cars and getting out before the next car pulls in.

Edit: actually, it looks like the crew are parking the passenger's cars for them.

57

u/nobody-at-all-ever 4d ago

They are brand new cars and there are dedicated teams who load these car transport ships.

8

u/breakConcentration 3d ago

This. These are new cars.

4

u/AndrasKrigare 3d ago

It was bothering me how the colors generally varied between white and black, and there were so many of the exact same model over and over.

1

u/nobody-at-all-ever 2d ago

Usually going to the Middle East where they favour white as it reflects the sun.

2

u/Brandywjn 4d ago

Should've used the sunroof.

8

u/Skiff9891 4d ago

i wondered if that was some sort of equipment on the railing that needs access and they park that way to distribute weight

3

u/Trace-Elliott 4d ago

My guess would be firefighting equipment

32

u/FrontierCub 4d ago

Glad I’m not the only one

3

u/DanieltheMani3l 4d ago

Don’t think another car could fit there tbh

1

u/JoshZK 4d ago

Sink the whole thing. Trash

9

u/saramurai 4d ago

The white car on its right side got first and the driver probably didn’t want to exit through the passenger door.

9

u/C4PT4IN_ANG3L 4d ago

what about the white one in the upper left that uses two spaces?

3

u/JamesCDiamond 4d ago

It's crooked but not taking up usable space; Like the white car parking in the centre of 1.9 spaces it's just getting to enjoy both armrests.

2

u/peenpeenpeen 4d ago

Don’t look at the two cars parked vertically.

2

u/splitminds 4d ago

Exactly! Not oddly satisfying, mildly infuriating!

1

u/Drag0n_TamerAK 4d ago

And that one car in 2 spaces

1

u/eutectic_h8r 4d ago

I'm assuming that's probably optimal use of space so it doesn't go back as far?

1

u/bii345 4d ago

It’s ducking killing me. This is the worst kind of trolling.

u/tallpaulmass 4d ago

I can’t un see this

230

u/Soggy_Amoeba9334 4d ago

That's no ferry

61

u/1kings2214 4d ago

It's a space station

15

u/wahrerNorden 4d ago

It's too big to be a space station.

7

u/Soul_King92 4d ago

It's another mobile phone game advertising, they are always different from what they show in the video.

-32

u/sultan_of_gin 4d ago

Ferries can be pretty huge in some waters

76

u/Unusual_Flounder2073 4d ago

It isn’t the size. It’s the fact all the cars are the same. It’s a transport moving cars from one country to another for sale.

10

u/Organic-Low-2992 4d ago

Finally somebody noticed this.

3

u/MortyFromEarthC137 4d ago

It can still be a ferry, I was on one in January from France to Ireland and the top deck was entirely new cars being transported.

23

u/furryscrotum 4d ago

These are all similar car models ..

10

u/nunatakj120 4d ago

It’s still not a ferry.

-1

u/dingleberry-terry 4d ago

What is it?

16

u/Rory_calhoun_222 4d ago

Probably a "RoRo" or Roll-on/Roll-Off transport ship.

1

u/dingleberry-terry 4d ago

Ah, thank you

1

u/420Deez 4d ago

who cares. all i see is boat.

4

u/Shudnawz 4d ago

"Ship!"

3

u/No-Performer3495 4d ago

A roll-on/roll-off cargo ship

216

u/Bart2800 4d ago

That doesn't look like a ferry, but more like a transport of new cars.

24

u/Xerderan 4d ago

what's the ship called new cars are transported on?

39

u/IamMeanGMAN 4d ago

Ro-ro. Roll on roll off.

20

u/SpeedLimitC 4d ago

ϱ ϱ ϱ your boat...

6

u/[deleted] 4d ago

Like, you said it, Scoob!

13

u/Bart2800 4d ago

A cargo ship transporting cars. I don't think ship categories are all named.

34

u/Lord_Waldemar 4d ago

Car go ship.

3

u/Bart2800 4d ago

r/angryupvote Take it and leave.

1

u/CaptainFoyle 2d ago

It's called a RoRo vessel

2

u/buttcrack_lint 3d ago

What about the ship that transports ships that new cars are transported on?

u/Ok-Lock-9658 4d ago

that black car was just a few centimeters from being perfect and that white car taking two spots is making me so bothered whyyy

40

u/3Smally3 4d ago

The white car is like that because if you look, there is something in the way of fitting another car next to it, so it seems like they parked in the easiest way possible as another car couldn't fit in next to them anyway.

29

u/ycr007 4d ago

They’re deliberately not parking same coloured cars in a row as they would disappear if done so!

Caretris

96

u/Big_Z_Beeblebrox 4d ago

Are these going to a dealership or does everyone in town drive the same car?

79

u/BokeTsukkomi 4d ago

Not only the same car, but your color options are:

- Yellow

- White

- Black

- Light Grey

- Dark Grey

8

u/Theguffy1990 4d ago

More options than flagship phones at least!

2

u/Difficult-Court9522 4d ago

Yellow is pretty

2

u/ComplexStress9503 3d ago

Looks like one lucky one gets a blue!

3

u/BokeTsukkomi 3d ago

That's a rebel and he will be shot

1

u/gravityblord98 4d ago

also silver

1

u/AlanWardrobe 3d ago

GTA just loaded new area

1

u/ChrisHisStonks 2d ago

1 from the right 2 up looks more like royal blue to me. Don't see any dark grey?

1

u/BokeTsukkomi 2d ago

Blue is a rebel that will be swiftly dealt with

Two cars above left yellow look dark grey

4

u/abat6294 4d ago

My guess is these cars are straight out of the factory

21

u/SollarNomad 4d ago

First In, Last Out

1

u/Vasomir 4d ago

Last in, looking around

8

u/MiserableScot 4d ago

Yeah, can I take one of the yellow ones for a test drive, please?

14

u/xSypRo 4d ago

It's insane to think how massive this ship is, and how much weight it can load.

29

u/VEAG0 4d ago

They said the same thing about my mother.

12

u/tiredofthisnow7 4d ago

Haha... No, wait... That's not how you do it.

3

u/NetCaptain 4d ago

in fact cars are very light weight cargo, occupying abt 20 cubic meters of ship space for less then 2 tons of weight, just 0,1t/m3. Oil is close to 1t/m3, iron ore is 5t/m3

2

u/TheOldBean 4d ago

And how space inefficient cars are

10

u/nunatakj120 4d ago

That’s not a ferry.

9

u/Senor-Delicious 4d ago

One slightly too strong wave and all of the cars are scratched.

5

u/Nosciolito 4d ago

That's not satisfying at all! There's that line with three cars instead of four, my OCD is crying!

11

u/flatline000 4d ago

How does the driver get out of the car when there's no space to open the door?

7

u/RepresentativeBag91 4d ago

Looks like they’re crawling across and exiting the passenger side

5

u/LazyIncome5292 4d ago

Wherever this is, the wheels are on the left side of the car, I think.

19

u/HEXES_999 4d ago

There are wheels on both sides of the car

7

u/NotASmoothAnon 4d ago

No, just the bottom side.

3

u/[deleted] 4d ago

You have to get into the very last car that was parked and sequentially follow that pattern up until the very first car that was parked.

1

u/CaptainFoyle 2d ago

There is space. Use your eyes

5

u/mizinamo 4d ago

Clearly not their first rodeo!

3

u/bigloser42 4d ago

the color palate of these cars is just depressing.

1

u/VIPERsssss 4d ago

Maybe they're in Turkmenistan?

4

u/YoungDiscord 2d ago

"Which car is yours?"

"Oh, its the white one with the black sunroof"

3

u/Available-Hat1640 4d ago

that one mf on the top left took two spaces

3

u/Narshyl82 4d ago

The black car on the right...

3

u/YesterShill 4d ago

Have to admit, this is not personally satisfying.

Can't help but see how incredibly inefficient requiring a u turn is during the loading process.

3

u/Netflxnschill 4d ago

One driver caused a 3 car row instead of a 4 car row, there was PLENTY of space for another car in the last little shuffle, this was not satisfying.

3

u/yushy99 3d ago

Glad to see at least 2 people aren’t depressed

2

u/Fit-Friendship-9097 4d ago

Oddly satisfying yet makes me feel quite claustrophobic at the same time.

2

u/HealerOnly 4d ago

Should be reposted to mildly infuriating instead >.<

2

u/j0j0-- 4d ago

Yeah I don’t like this lmao

2

u/scandal_jmusic_mania 4d ago

Anyone else annoyed by the black car on the right beside the corner of the railing?

2

u/T-J_H 4d ago

This is not satisfying at all

3

u/4_string_bean 4d ago

Nah, this is more r/mildlyinfuriating than anything else.

2

u/B4N35P1R17 3d ago

Why are all the cars the same? Is it some kind of manufacturer sending cars to a dealership or something?

That’s not a ferry.

1

u/AlpineVW 4d ago

Thanks for clearing that up, what is it then? Looks like a boat that's transporting vehicles a short distance.

2

u/fireduck 4d ago

My guess is a long distance. It looks like a Ro-Ro (Roll on, Roll Off) ship. Usually they are carrying new cars oversea.

2

u/AlpineVW 4d ago

If overseas, I'm surprised they aren't covered and more exposed to salt air and the elements

1

u/fireduck 4d ago

They are rather tall, I imagine not a real lot makes it up there:

u/One_Fennel9322 4d ago

iam surprised they dont back in the 1st couple of rows to make unloading easier at the end when everybody is tired

1

u/randomacct7679 4d ago

Why is the one white car on the left hogging two spaces?

1

u/theAchilliesHIV 4d ago

So 2 car brands and 3 colors… odd… it also somehow explains why I don’t see uber anymore.

u/kochapi 4d ago

u/herbschmoaka 4d ago

As an OCD person, this is a complete fail. The gap in the center, the two cars parked sideways with space behind them, not enough space to exit the right side vehicles in the upper right quadrant of the ferry..the list goes on...
