If you park on the wrong side of the street... where did you learn to drive?

| Lots of people in our neighborhood do this. I usually loop around to park on the correct side. For me it can be a visibility issue- there is street parking on both sides and one drivable lane down the middle, and when I’m parked on the left and my neighbor’s SUV is in front of me, it’s actually hard to see if there is an oncoming car. |

I was in another city and state over the weekend and watched someone try their hardest to park in a space but in the opposite direction of every other car parking on the same side of the street. It was mindboggling but also entertaining and I had a boozy iced coffee to sip on while all this was happening and they finally ended up on the curb parked the wrong way. |

| It’s very elitist and entitled to think you can just park any way you want ignoring all the rules and creating chaos. And parking the wrong way is just a very small indication of one’s state of mind and lack of respect for everything else. |

I like parking the wrong way so that when people come down the street that have a shock that make they are going the wrong way one way street. It tends to make them drive the speed limit rather than coming through |

| We were just in Edinburgh and it was common - parking on the wrong side + also parking in the opposite direction of traffic. Haven't seen this much in the U.S. |
