Parallel Parking

The street in front of our business has parallel parking spaces on both sides, with an unusually tall curb-height. Over the years it has become routine for me, my employees and even other customers to stop what they are doing just to watch people park (or attempt to) in these spaces.

I see several each day that pull straight in rather than backing in properly; others that take five or six tries before either settling for getting as close as they can or giving up altogether.

I have to admit it is at least entertaining to watch--but seriously, it is just not that hard, right? I mean--if you can't manage your vehicles dimensions any better than that while trying to park, how are your other driving skills?

I think I just answered my own question. That is all.
