    It's like the lass who lives across the road from me. She has to sound the horn and get her dad to come out and park.

    "Even the seagulls are laughing at her". Love it.

    Seriously, how did she pass her driving test?

    Maybe she didn't have to parallel park - I didn't when I took my test 30ish years ago, though it is now back in the test.

    From driving test website

    https://www.gov.uk/practical-driving-test-for-cars/what-happens-during-the-test

    Reversing your vehicle safely

    You’ll have to show how well you can reverse your vehicle. The examiner will ask you to do one of the following exercises:

    reversing around a corner
    turning in the road
    reverse parking - either into a parking bay, or parallel parking at the side of the road

    So the chances are she didn't have to parallel park in her test.

    Two reasons I made that comment. Firstly, she looked in her 20s to me, so I would expect she took her test fairly recently i.e. since parallel parking has been in the test - so how did she pass it? Secondly, as she is so incompetent at manouevering (sp?) her vehicle, how is she considered capable of driving a car - and how did she possibly reverse around a corner?

    Third - it is a set up.
