I went to go pick up Chinese for dinner at Forrestal Village a few hours ago, and I see this person "attempting" to park in front of me.....

This woman was trying....I watched her pull forward and backup 3-4 times. It's one thing if you just don't care and your parking looks like that, but if you actually tried to do it right (in a spot plenty large enough), and manage to screw it up that bad, you shouldn't be driving.

She gets a D- ...
When in the truck, I just turn in, run over the curb, come back off and im there. All in one motion ... :)
You should see the parking at some of the airports I have been at. People pulling pretty much 90* towards that curb. I dunno if its just ignorance or stupidity.

personally i hate people (usually contractors) that have like an F350 longbed pickup and they decide its too long to fit in just one parking space, so they pull halfway through both spots...when i have personally parked them multiple times in one spot, with a trailer hitch sticking out the back as well

I can live with that.

personally, i hate when they dont and they stick out to kingdom come and make it impossible for us to park. but i saw a tahoe do that this week and that was retarded. his truck isn't that big

I usually do that... pulling otu is so much easier than backing out

you mean because a big truck can pull farther into a spot because of the overhang over the curb or because of ease of entry/exit?

I'm sure he means the ease of entry/exit. I know usually back into spots when driving my dad's '84 Silverado for that reason.

- JustinWhat he said. As narrow as parking lot lanes are I can't swing wide enough to make it in a spot and be straight. That is if I even make it in the spot at all. Try backing a 21' truck out of a spot and you'll see why we back in.

I learned something valuable shortly after I got my license from a guy who regularly used one of his '68 Plymouth Fury III's to tow a 19' ski boat between Yardley, PA and downtown Trenton. If you can successfully back into a spot in close quarters, you shouldn't have any trouble pulling out of it forwards. The same cannot always be said in reverse....
