A driver apparently angry that a mailman was double parked in San Francisco’s Marina District was arrested after getting out of his car and assaulting the mailman on Thursday, police said.
The 51-year-old mailman was double-parked while delivering mail in the area of Divisadero and Bay streets at 5:55 p.m., police said.
The suspect, a 46-year-old man, pulled up behind the mailman and started honking his car horn loudly. He then got out of his car and hit the mailman multiple times in the face and body.

Postal carriers are allowed to park any where while delivering the mail, as long as their hazard lights are on. I know this because I’ve been told by the police and a fire chief.
That would earn you 6 months in the slammer.
