Parallel parking is a method of parking a vehicle parallel to the road, in line with other parked vehicles. Parallel parking usually requires initially driving slightly past the parking space , parallel to the parked vehicle in front of that space, keeping a safe distance, then followed by reversing into that space.
The parallel parking problem is a motion planning problem in control theory and mechanics to determine the path a car must take to parallel park into a parking space. The front wheels of a car are permitted to turn, but the rear wheels must stay aligned.
A parking space, parking place or parking spot is a location that is designated for parking, either paved or unpaved. It can be in a parking garage, in a parking lot or on a city street. The space may be delineated by road surface markings. The automobile fits inside the space, either by parallel parking, perpendicular parking or angled parking.

"Double parking" means standing or parking a vehicle on the roadway side of a vehicle already stopped, standing or parked at the curb. [1] This often prevents some of the vehicles in the first row from departing and always obstructs a traffic lane or bike lane (to the extent of often making the street impassable in one-way single-lane situations).
The concept of Parallel Coordinates is often said to originate in 1885 by a French mathematician Philbert Maurice d'Ocagne. [1] d'Ocagne sought a way to provide graphical calculation of mathematical functions using alignment diagrams called nomograms which used parallel axes with different scales. For example, a three-variable equation could be ...
In some cities, parallel parking adjacent to bicycle lanes is permitted. This puts the bike lane in the dangerous door zone , but angle parking eliminates this hazard. Compared to parallel parking, reverse angle parking often provides more parking spaces in a given length of street, though this will vary depending on site conditions such as ...
Parallel parking usually benefits with starting close to the front car in terms of the sides, yet it starts from a far. However it ends up nicely, but to do so one can notice it does some gliding during the process that defies regular situations. It might be best to use a more accurate one. --f s 20:11, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
