he is actually parked, the drive (only 1) was out directing traffic next to a building site, maybe they needed to dampen the foundations of the building site, this is near where the Taxi's line up in the car park over by Qantas Link

A general rule of thumb is if there is nobody sitting in the drivers seat the vehicle isn't being driven.
