Brigante Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Haha i have seen this i think , some people should not be able to have a license lol lmao i just seen it on the news now theres no way she had to perform the maneuver on her test, like the blokes proving the running comentary said she must of got lucky n done a hill start n a turn in the road on her test cracks me up when they started saying things like let the pigeon park for her then at the end of the video when a bloke offers to park for her and ends up giving her a step by step from the pavement n she still keeps turning the wrong way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoney871 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 It was actually in south Belfast. Watched it on BBC Newsline last night (missus watches the Irish news as she's a Belfast girl). They had an interview with the lads that made the video (marketing students). A lot of people find that offside parallel parking is harder than nearside. It has been proven that women have less spacial awareness than men so will have trouble judging distance and dimensions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gforce Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Clive, apparently Newsline challenged the guys to a bit of parking themselves, but I haven't seen it yet. Used to live on this street myself, the whole area is always tight for parking so I can kinda see why she wasn't giving up, and I've seen plenty of shocking attempts, but this one takes the biscuit. I have offered to park for a few people in my time in the big smoke too, only one actually let me though, but to be fair it was a tight space...unlike this one where ye cud have got a bus in there!

Stoney871 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 The lad that took the challenge and managed it three times but bumped the kerb once. The OB presenter managed it too with no fuss. Some people just can't parallel park though, it does take co-ordination and acute special awareness to get it right every time, thank god for parking sensors I say ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
