My LYRIQ, which I easily park in a standard 2 car garage with MomHawk's Mustang does not fit in a lot of "modern" parking spots.
As I stated above many plazas and big box stores aren't taking the hint.

BUT... in many cases drivers, of all types of vehicles, don't give a crap about how they park. Oh, they'll bitch and moan about other people's parking but not their own.

And speaking of not taking the hint, new home builders here in Ontario haven't changed the sizes of their garages and are not allowing enough room on the driveway for modern cars/trucks. But that's a whole other rant of mine.
