Parallel parking is a method of parking a vehicle in line with other parked vehicles. Parallel parking requires initially driving slightly past the parking space, parallel to the parked vehicle in front of that space, (hence the term 'Parallel Parking'), keeping a safe distance, then followed by reversing into that space. Subsequent position adjustment may require the use of forward and reverse gears.

  • Less skilled drivers will usually bump into the cars in front of and/or behind the spot they're either entering or leaving. Examples of Parallel Parking include:
  • Parallel parking is the almost impossible maneuver that takes a car and squeezes it between two other cars, spaced just close enough together that a car should not be able to fit between. Through a clever combination of reverse driving, crafty steering, and magic, a car may find itself between two other cars, but it probably won't.

Through a clever combination of reverse driving, crafty steering, and magic, a car may find itself between two other cars, but it probably won't. Beginning drivers learn to use "reference points" to guess where they are in relation to the car in front of the space, to determine the proper angle for backing, and to determine how long to pray to whatever deity they worship. Some people found it easier to simply pay half their annual earnings and risk their lives by parking in a filthy cave, which can be optionally dark and populated by the dregs of humanity, otherwise known as a parking lot.
