Re: Can you parallel park

  • I LOVE to. Probably not the best at it, but I enjoy the challenge.

  • I can and will but if I'm on a busy street, I'll park way out of the way to avoid parallel parking.

  • I will pass up spots to avoid parallel parking.  I'm sure the last time I did it was during my driving test.

  • I was an excellent parallel Parker in college because it was a necessity. But now I avoid it at all costs!

  • Im the same way, I'll park 2 miles out if I have to lol.

    We didnt have to know how to for our driving test either.

  • Nope. The only reason I passed when I took my test was because there were no cars actually there. I had 2 trees as markers to park between and they were like 2 cars lengths apart.

  • I about 80% suck at it, but if I have to, I give it the old college try. However, if the spot isn't big, I pretty much don't even try if I know there is another option.

  • I can parallel park all day... My H sucks at it so bad, there have been times he's had to get out of the car just so I can park for us.

  • I can. Actually, in my family, I may be the only person other than my dad and brother who can. Both my mom and DH have made me switch seats with them to park :) 
  • Not even a little bit.

    If I HAVE to parallel park, I look for one on an end, or one that has an open space next to it. And then I park all bad so no one else can park too close and make it hard to get out.

  • Like a champ. Spaces that people say the car wouldn't fit. It used to be one of my most useful talents because we lived in Boston.  Now we're in the burbs.

  • I can't to save my life either. And this is especially bad because I live in Europe and that's almost all there is here. And I have an SUV. I'm screwed. (I basically avoid driving if I can).
  • Yep. 

    In college, I was a bus driver. Each day, I had to parallel park a 40 foot bus.

    A 10 foot car is a breeze.
