Video: Stupid Car Park Crash

Normal people usually lift their foot off the gas pedal and start applying some pressure on the brake pedal before they park. But not this driver (we’ve no idea if it’s a he or she) who continued going on until the building in front put a stop to the VW Golf’s course… -Video after the jump

Oops! Russian Subway Parking

Apparently this Russian guy lost control of his Lada and ended up, or rather down, the subway entrance. According to the guy who took the pictures, not only did the driver escape without getting hurt but luckily for him, there were no innocent by-passers at the time at the subway’s stairway entrance. -Click “Read More…” below for more images

Quiz: Would You Pay $200,000 For A Parking Space?

Here’s a question for all you big city dwellers out there: How far would you go for a parking space? Some people in cities such as NYC, Chicago and Boston have gone as far as paying over $200,000 for a deeded parking space. Since property values in the city are always escalating and homes in popular cities are constantly in demand, people can sell these spaces at these kinds of prices and get away with it. But having your own personal parking spaces isn’t only about the convenience. -Continued: Click “Read More…” below

People are stocking up on two or even three of these precious investments so they can rent them to other desperate parkers and make some money on the deal. Parking spaces in NYC go for about the same price per square foot as actual living space. Now, what kind of society holds equal amount of value between a roof over your head and a parking space? The answer is, people are so desperate they’d rather live in their cars in their own personal parking space than in an apartment that’s simply close to the subway. Honestly, wouldn’t it just be simpler to save your $200,000 and just take the bus?

Italian Parking Lesson 101: Avoid the wall

Boy, is this old fella crazy or what! Look at him go like 6.000 rpm’s in reverse in his Fiat Seicento. But it gets even better when he tries to park his car in the garage or rather, in the garage wall… Seriously though, how do these people keep their drivers-licenses? I mean, if someone’s capable of destroying his own vehicle during a routine parking imagine what damage he can do on the road. Via: Leblogauto

NY gets its first Robotic Parking System

New Yorkers are about to get a taste of the future with the opening of the first robotic parking system in Chinatown in February. Given our time constraints and busy schedules, we can’t help but commend this newly introduced idea. We all have places to go and people to see. Taking the time to look for parking is a straight waste of our time.
But it wouldn’t be our “style” to not include some sort of “bad scenario”. What if the robo-parker malfunctions and drops a 10,000$ Hyundai on your 80,000$ Benz. Wait, here’s a better one- The garage system malfunctions and your car gets stuck inside for days (this one actually happened). In addition, just for laughs…what if you neglect to leave the vehicle, you get lowered into the garage but it gets stuck and you’re suspended 50 feet in the air?

Spanish Parking Lesson 101: Avoid the poles

I’m guessing that the owners of this parking lot in Spain must have been up for a big surprise this morning seeing the blue Mercedes-Benz CLK parked in this near artistic way... From what we made out from the Spanish newspaper who reported the accident today, seems like the owner of the Mercedes-Benz lost control of his car due to the icy roads and ended up climbing half a dozen of poles. Fortunately, no one was injured. Via: Motorpasion & Diariodenavarra

BMW Self-Parking Car System Video

So what’s the difference between this auto parking system and various others that have been previewed the past few years like the Toyota Prius one? Well, BMW’s doesn’t kneed the driver to be in the car.
Although it comes to a contrast with the Bavarian moto “The Ultimate Driving Machine”, BMW promises that because this system is based on technology already used in the latest 7-Series, it is just a matter of time before they put it in production. Nevertheless, I still can’t find the use of a system that just parks itself in a garage. If you ask, me I prefer the alternative “famine fatal” auto park system in the following video bellow…via: wired
