Has Car Parking become a problem for you too ?

For me its a different case. our car garage door just opens to the road back side of our home. and that road is only for 3 sites for us and other 2 neighbours. They are yet to construct home. The problem is we keep the garage door shut unless we need to take out vehicle now here comes the trouble. since the road is used by none always. people from other roads and their visitors just park their cars in this road. it really annoys me that we cant take out our unless they take their vehicles from there and they are least bothered of the inconvenience they are causing us. If we try to explain them the problem few understands but few just uses foul words really annoying.

I am lucky to have a garage, and my car stays in it most of the time. I live in the center of a town, and it is very difficult to park it in the streets. I am moving in a place where it will be even more difficult (there are a lot of pedestrian streets around). I have bought a bicycle a few years ago, and I do often my shopping in the town with it. I am also using buses times to times.

Car parking is really a grave problem in a Metro city like Delhi. I avoid taking my vehicle, where there is such problem. I see no solution to this problem. Car pooling is one of the options but not many people resort to it. Government has enhanced parking charges to a considerable level, even that has not deterred the car users to avoid riding on their cars. Even in residential areas car parking is one of the big problems, neighbors often start arguing over parking space, which seems very awkward. If I need to go to such places which have parking problem, I better hire a vehicle or ride on Metro train.

I know what you are talking about, as when I park, i try to do it in such a way, that I can drive out instead of backing out. I really don't like backing out either, as sometimes there isn't a lot of room to back out. That is about the only place where I worry about parking.

@ashuli I have stopped seeing movie in theatre or in home I am happy to say that I don't have a car also

The stores in my area are not crowded anymore and you can always find parking places.

It is indeed a problem now even in a small city like ours.Earlier one culd park just about anywhere , which of course was wrong, now things are much more organised , as a result of which we keep circling around the city center looking for a safe parking spot.It is no problem when you visit the malls since they have their own parking , have a feeling this is one of the reasons why malls attract large crowds ..

I pray first, then in a short while ... a parking lot becomes available for me.

No problem parking places we go.

I am sorry you have that problem. I live in the Boondocks and have a very large driveway thanks to my husband expanding it. We have a small town where sometimes parking can be an issue but I am certain it is nothing like in your cities!

Finding a place to park was impossible when I was in New Delhi 30 years ago! I'm sure it's much worse now.

Yes, it's a major problem in Delhi where it seems that every family (except my own) possesses at least two cars. Generally I use my Office car while commuting to and fro office. Fortunately, a car with 'Government of India' logo does not face much problem for parking. My wife does face major problem in parking our personal vehicle.

Yes. This problem is everywhere. Even in a small place like Mount Abu where I live, it is sometimes very difficult to find parking.

I have a driver so never have to face this issue.! all i do is drop outta the car, he manages the parking ( keeps shifting if has to ) and picks me back up. But yeah, it is a big mess here, with more and more ppl being able to afford cars and public transport taking a set-back- the issue of traffic jams nd parking will keep getting worse unless ppl step-up and start preferring pub. trans.

I have a hard time parking at my work it gets so busy since i work in a hospital. I try to get there early to get a close spot. They don't have alot of employee parking so we just park in one lot then have to go in a far lot to park if there's nothing close. It's annoying and difficult especially in the winter and you have to walk a distance to get to the building. I wish we had our own parking places. Even at the mall and restaurants its hard to park and then you have people that park in 2 spots or cant park at all..

I'll always wait till car will leave and I think I'm very luck with that because I always find someone who will leave the parking area.

it's a problem in cities where ever we go.....to avoid this we mostly prefer two wheeler while going out

I usually end up walking long distances, ugh. Hurts my feet; I have plantar fasciitis. Ugh again.

usually I have to park my bike or my car at the road side which causes a lots of problems to me.... Firstly there is no security at all.......... Secondly many of the no parking areas are not even provided with a sign board which again in turn cause different kind of issues..........
