Italian Parking Standards

[maneesh]

probably not a great deal worse than our dear aido, but pretty bad...taken on my recent visit to milan

[aido]

I admit my parking is bad but these are crazy!

I like to have 4 foot clear either side of my car when I'm parallel parking, I'm a bit crap at it

Saw one of those Smart cars parked facing the kerb the other day in Matlock, it's always crazy busy down there but it fit in nicely!

Crazy parking there, do they really want their cars trashed

Seen that a few times in London and they do fit :D

This was taken in Paris a few years back

Not too bad, you could probably lift it out the gap with the help of a few friends :)

Standard practice in parts of Italy.

crazy

[webbbr]

nearly as bad as the misus' parking :)

Do that in certain parts of Ireland and risk getting pushed/nudged.... seen a guy do it once with a carina, he'd pull up to the car in front and keep pushing it until there was enough room to get out .... frightening

[The Editor]

Yeah... and that REALLY does an Auto Box a lot of good !!!

Also - You can't push/nudge a car without marking the paint.

Oh - I will NEVER be taking my car to Italy or Paris !!... Neanderthals !!!

Sorry maybe you should read a little slower..... :duh:

I saw a guy in a old "CARINA" push his way out off being boxed in.... ;)

BTW not only would there be a danger of scratching the paint, but bumper fit would be severely compromised
