    I do OK with parallel parking, but have to admit I'll walk a distance in order to avoid having to do it, if that's an option.

    The pros:

      Living and tuning in the city has vastly improved my parallel parking skills. Sometimes I even surprise myself fitting in or out of a tight squeeze!

      When I bought my 2020 Kia Niro, one of the things I looked for was a shorter car that could still fit tall people in the back seat comfortably.

          Yes - the cameras really help with getting close without touching!

            Glad we don’t live in Brooklyn, where cramped parallel parking is a must. (Either that or you just double-park.). Anyway, I was never very good at it. Nor at parking beautifully between the lines in a parking lot.
