Aussie rips into Woolworths over a very annoying new feature trends now Aussies rip into Woolworths over a very annoying new supermarket feature: 'I won't be shopping there anymore - it's discrimination' Woolworths has reserved 'green' carparks The spaces are for low emission vehicles By Ashley Nickel For Daily Mail Australia Published: 22:11 GMT, 5 February 2023 | Updated: 22:12 GMT, 5 February 2023 Viewcomments An angry Woolworths customer has slammed its new carparks reserved for eco-friendly vehicles as 'discrimination'. Melbourne-based photographer Matt Lawson shared a video on Sunday of the green parking spaces at Mernda Town Centre's Woolworths, in the city's north. In the video, Mr Lawson showed a Woolworths sign in front of carparks marked out in green. The sign reads: 'Reserved Parking. Low emitting, fuel efficient vehicles only.' It then lists the cars that qualify to park in the spaces which include cars that use five litres or less per 100km driven as well as hybrid and electric cars. A Woolworths carpark in north Melbourne (above) has spaces marked in green that are reserved for low emission vehicles 'I've just come across this wokeness at a new level,' Mr Lawson said in the clip. 'Reserve parking, low emitting, fuel efficient vehicles only at Woolworths. 'They've got green spaces so if this place is busy you can only park in the green spaces if you fit that criteria. 'That's crazy.' He captioned the short video: 'Discrimination at a car parking level. This is “wokeness” on steroids. My poor little 7.1/100km Captiva was deeply hurt and will need counselling.' The reserved Woolworths carparks for the eco-friendly vehicles are marked out in green (above) More than 1,000 people commented under the video with many slamming the reserved parks. 'I’d park my 32-year-old diesel 80 series there in a heartbeat,' one commenter said. 'We'll all be shopping at Coles,' another wrote. 'Meanwhile I'm a wheelchair user who can't push myself in the chair, can't afford an electric chair and I can rarely find enough disabled parking,' a third person said. 'No more Woolies shopping for me,' another commented. A fifth said: 'It's public parking I’ll park where I want.' Daily Mail Australia has contacted Woolworths for comment.
