I went to a RAN station today on my way home from being out of town for the weekend. When I arrived at the site, there was one additional vehicle charging (driver gone somewhere - probably at the adjacent shopping center). I parked and started charging and also made my way to the shopping center to use the restroom.

When I returned to my vehicle (10 minutes later or so) a third vehicle had arrived. (This is a 6-charger site).

the third vehicle had pulled into a spot that is VERY CLEARLY marked with signage asking for it to be the last spot used as it is ADA accessible. The vehicle had no indication that it had a need to use that spot (no placard or license plate with handicap indicators) and their were 2 other spots open that should have been used instead. What took it over the top was that they had thrown a used diaper into the middle of the parking spot, which I could tell was theirs because it wasn’t there when I pulled up originally and they had a child’s car seat in their vehicle.

If this was you, do better. If this wasn’t you, don’t be like this person!
I meant to snap a photo but forgot.

It probably wasn’t me. I’ve been wearing the same diaper for the last 3 days.

This was (gasp!), a Rivian owner? Our vehicles are so distinctive that I find myself being especially polite when I'm driving now, hoping that they think "wow - Rivian drivers are really considerate" (as opposed to the thought I often have when a Tesla driver cuts me off).

Thanks for letting us know - Had I seen this I might have been inclined to pick up the diaper and zing it at the offending vehicle (or, if they weren't there, put it under the wiper).

@COdogman Diapers? You didn’t pay extra for the massage/toilet seat function? What are you, poor?! /s

It was a Rivian loaner while the Tesla was being serviced.

Slow news day?

This "who done it" mystery ultimately rises to the same level as the countless coyote sightings in the Neighborhood app in my area.

And in late breaking news.... How many doys will COdogman run that diapers without a serious blowout? If you ever had a child with a blowout up their back in the childseat, you would understand.

Exactly, posting this on a forum for what purpose??

Because this is a forum for Rivian owners and this was a Rivian owner that acted like this. It’s a common decency thing. Don’t be a douche and leave trashy diapers in the middle of parking lots and don’t take spots that you shouldn’t take.

How many hours are in a “doy”?

Where’s Gary when you need him? Surely there’s a recording of the diaper bandit.
