I don't think they teach parallel parking anymore over here.
a person who clearly doesn't know how to operate a vehicle
I could have easly parked my long wheelbase dually in that space!
And in one go as well
I have an SUV so I get to this tight parallel parking the one day and start lining up to do the park. I notice this women on the sidewalk watching me but I did not worry about it. So I do the reverse park in one go stop get out the car. As I get out this women comes up to me and says "This is the first time I have ever seen someone park a large vehicle in one go like that, well done". I must admit my head grew a few sizes
good for her 
Oddly enough, my daughter is a better driver than my son. She has Range Rover and can reverse park that thing in one go.
I just bought a 2020 Subaru Forester which is a bit bigger than the other Forester I had so I'm being a bit cautious until I get more used to it
Good for her and good for you with your parking skill!And in one go as well

Both of my daughters and my son can parallel park whatever they are driving in one go. They have taught/are teaching their kids to do likewise. Rocky, I , too, am cautious when parking a vehicle I am not used to.

Good grief !!!! Icant say no more

When she went up the road to try and reverse again I was waiting for a car to zip in, I was thinking "please oh please" 
Seen that before. It is extremely painful to watch. To think that there are people out there like that on the same roads as me.
I was in one of those inside parking lots at a shopping complex. There was this younger girl trying to reverse out her parking. She had a concreat pillar on her right and another car on her left. Remember we have the drivers side on the right. There was no way she could get out and I could see that she was going to hit the pillar. I just could not watch so I offered to get her car out. She was dumbfounded how easy it was for me to reverse it out.
Think they should be given scale models to practice tight maneuvers with to see what actually happens with cars when you get in and out of tight spots. Too many touchy, feely incidents these days with inexperienced drivers.
Life time ban would be appropriate.
