Parallel parking is sometimes called the hardest thing to do in a car. I'll admit, it's not an easy maneuver for a new driver. It gets harder when the spot is smaller. I'm sure everyone has had that experience when you pull up to a spot, and it just seems a little to tight for your car to fit in.
Well here comes the Smart Car to save the day. No, I'm not talking about cars that can parallel park themselves. That's boring and not all that interesting. I'm talking about the actual Smart Car.
It's this small little car that the American market finally got a few months or years back.
Right, you'd still have to parallel park... or do you?
Today when I came home I saw a Smart Car park in between two cars. But instead of being parallel, it was perpendicular. That's right, that little guy just squeezed into the spot. Not normally a big deal since cars are longer than they are wider. But the magic is that the Smart Car is so short that it's only a few inches longer than the other cars are wider.
Maybe I should get one now...
