<\/p>\nAn Australian parking lot feature has caused quite the stir on social media.<\/p>\n
Parking \u2013 one of the worst parts of the test, particularly if you\u2019re unlucky<\/p>\n
enough to get instructed to perform a parallel park opposed<\/p>\n
to a bay park although, let\u2019s be real, they\u2019re not always an easy feat either.<\/p>\n
Thankfully, one shopping parking lot in Australia has seemingly decided to take<\/p>\n
pity on drivers and try and reduce the anxiety which is sure to creep in when you\u2019re<\/p>\n
trying to reverse into a spot with a line of 100 cars waiting impatiently behind you.<\/p>\n
Then ending up in a space so small, you have to squash yourself to the width of a pencil in order to even get out of your vehicle.<\/p>\n
Located at the Glebe Hill shopping center in Tasmania, the parking<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
lot looks like most others in that it features spaces separated by white lines.<\/p>\n
However, rather than a single white line separating each space,<\/p>\n
this particular parking lot has rectangular boxes between each space.<\/p>\n
This subsequently increases the size of the gap between cars,<\/p>\n
making it easier to manoeuvre your vehicle in and also actually get in and out yourself.<\/p>\n
The boxes might mean fewer cars can fit into the lot, but it\u2019s a price I\u2019d certainly be willing to pay.<\/p>\n
It seems so simple \u2013 why haven\u2019t we been doing this the entire time?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
And many people have been thinking the same after one very satisfied customer shared pictures of the parking lot on social media.<\/p>\n
The driver wrote on the Tasmania Parking Fails Facebook group: \u201cAll car parks should adopt this method for line markings.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201c(It) gives you a level of confidence when parking here that it is fairly unlikely that you will get a ding in your door whilst shopping,\u201d they continued.<\/p>\n
\u201cI realise that it doesn\u2019t absolutely guarantee that damage won\u2019t occur, but it is most likely 95 percent effective.<\/p>\n
\u201cNot too many parking fails seem to happen here because the double lines have the effect of creating more accurate parking.<\/p>\n
\u201cSupermarket car parks are renowned for a high degree of car damage but not so here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Viewers have described the feature as \u2018genius\u2019 and \u2018such a great idea\u2019, with another person who experienced the car park firsthand saying it was an \u2018absolutely elite parking experience\u2019.<\/p>\n
Of course, the risk of a collision is rarely zero when cars are moving around in the compact space of a parking lot, but the added space between cars will certainly make it less likely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
