1、There are so many things about this shopping centre that makes me angry.
2、People who park in the disabled parking apace are not entitled to, they just want to let their lazy arses closer to the entrance.
3、People just drive through the car spaces and not the entry point near McDonald's.
4、几乎相撞,死里逃生, near miss     侥幸脱险/差点出事/未遂事故/差点碰撞/险遭不测
