Meet the UK’s worst Parker.
Beginning drivers have many things to be concerned about. Parking is not an easy task. We’re not talking about novice drivers. Show some empathy for those just starting out.
This driver from the UK is an example, as shown in this tweet by The Sun. Although we aren’t sure if this Toyota driver is actually a beginner or not, the hilarious video you can see in the embedded tweet is stunning evidence.
The driver took eight minutes to park in this parking lot, which had many unoccupied spaces. The worst part was that the driver only parked perpendicularly. This is much easier than parallel parking. The seemingly impossible task was finally accomplished after 10 attempts. It’s a great achievement!
In case you were wondering, the car in the video is a Toyota Auris. This is a compact hatchback with good visibility on reverse. Although we don’t know what caused the problem, we do hope that the driver can get a grip on parking.
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the times when we were learning how to drive before we judge this driver. All of us were beginners at one time or another. I bet some of my dear readers have had difficulty parking a car.
All of us had to start somewhere, and sometimes those beginnings were painful. It was unfortunately caught on camera by the driver.
