I am telling you for 100% fact: People absolutely park like assholes (including on sidewalks and bike lanes) throughout the US from BFE to Atlanta to Wheeling to D.C. to Jupiter New York City to Vegas. I have lived there my entire life and visited numerous places throughout the country.

There might be some places where it gets policed better but that doesn't stop people everywhere. I just yelled at a guy for parking his truck on the sidewalk last week and I live in a small city.
