Instead, they should be driven at a better standard

100% this. If I drove one of those things I'd park it perfectly every time just to avoid the shame.

    Thats the funny thing. I drive a jeep unlimited which isn't particularly small and I fit in EVERY spot.

    I'd understand using 2 spots in some circumstances, but, I've literally seen people in a RAM 1500 pull up to the parking lot just brake and not even try to correct their obviously crooked parking. If you're at an IGA or woolies during lunch time, you're clearly not THAT rushed
