Drivers in Nebraska are ending up between a rock and a parking space. 

Motorists are finding their journeys are coming to an abrupt end after hitting a rock at the entrance to a parking lot. 

The boulder appears to be out of the sight lines for many drivers who attempt to make a turn into the driveway.  

The problem has become an endless source of amusement to those in the town of West Omaha, so much so the rock now has its own Facebook and Imugur pages.

‘Since the rock is more or less shaped like a ramp, if a car hits it with just a little bit of force, it gets stuck right on top of it,’ a description of the gallery reads. 

‘Usually it’s bigger cars, it’s like right below their window level so they can’t really see it and before it’s too late they can’t stop,’ said Chris Menchaca to WOWT who works at a local store. 

‘It’s happened 13 times in the last year and three or four times in the last few months,’ said Menchaca.

The rock was initially put in place to stop drivers from cutting the corner, but many still do, or at least attempt to, and then get caught. 

Even huge 4X4 vehicles and SUV’s are getting stuck on the massive slab. 

Visitors to the Facebook page have made a number of amusing comments online. 

‘Makes me laugh every time I see it. Still don’t know how lol’, wrote one user.

‘So, the people driving over the rock…maybe they’re stoned?’ joked another.

It's definitely a case of two-wheels bad, four wheels good with this particular car
