Pro tip: The guy who helped me parallel park on 3rd street saved my whole afternoon
Used to circle blocks for 15 minutes looking for easy spots. Then last Tuesday I was stuck trying to get into this tiny space near the coffee shop on 3rd street and this dude in a pickup just got out and started waving me in. He gave me hand signals and everything. Took like 90 seconds. Now I just pull up near tight spots and if someone looks friendly I ask for help. Has anyone else had strangers help with parking or driving stuff?

@faith_king that old guy with the dog sounds like a legend. And @derek_perez its not about it being deep, its about someone being nice when you're stuck. A little help goes a long way.

A complete stranger just hopped out of his truck to direct me in one time and I almost cried. I was already sweating and about to give up when this old guy with a dog started shouting "keep coming, keep coming, you got plenty of room" from the sidewalk. He was totally wrong about the room part but somehow his confidence made me nail it on the first try.
