So exactly how do you park on curbs? I was always told (like an old wives tale) to always make sure that whatever side I park on that both the front and rear tires are both on the curb, as in both passenger front and rear or both driver front and rear. Never park with just one tire only on the curb. :like: Now, that may be totally inaccurate :giggle: but that's what I have always been told.

My cousin used to park like that, until one day it just stayed that way.

Hahaha I believe in that as well! I don't know why but just the thought of the car being "half up" makes me uneasy, even if it is a tiny hump.

I don't do it that often, but there's a street with a bunch of restaurants by my work, so I sometimes go there on my lunch break, and can't find any parking. Some of the restaurants have a small curb next to them so I just have my Jeep climb over those for a quick stop while picking up my food :angel: I should take a photo of that next time to make it clearer, but it's definitely my entire Jeep over the curb, not half :LOL: My country is really really hot this time of year, so there aren't really any pedestrians. Either way, I wouldn't park and take up space on an actual "sidewalk" that people need to walk on.

Was that book old enough that you also got to watch “ Signal 30” and “”Red Asphalt”?
