[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear people of the DMV:

If it takes you more than a three point turn to park your ridiculously huge SUV:
 
a) Get a smaller car,
b) improve your driving skills, 
and c) for the love of god stop with the stupid back-in parking already.

Thank you. That is all. [/quote]

There was a very long and contentious thread recently devoted to debate on back-in parking (not just of SUVs but any vehicles and that is where this thread is already heading too).

Seriously no need to rehash that whole discussion.

But folks with monster SUVs, trucks, etc. should learn to park FAR AWAY in sections of lots or garages where they are not squeezing in between parked cars, or parking so that they hog the lines on one or both sides and normal humans cannot open their doors. I think people with these vehicles often have no idea at all how much room the vehicle takes up. Most parking spaces were never intended for vehicles this wide or long.

Had to climb in through my passenger door the other day because a honking huge pickup was so close, and at just enough of an angle in the space next to me, that I could not even get to the driver's side of my car, much less open the door.

If the weather is halfway decent and you're not qualified for a handicapped space and you drive these big vehicles, park away from humanity, parking hogs. Walk a little extra to your destination.[/quote]
