An Australian parking lot feature has caused quite the stir on social media.

Parking – one of the worst parts of the test, particularly if you’re unlucky enough to get instructed to perform a parallel park opposed to a bay park although, let’s be real, they’re not always an easy feat either.

Thankfully, one shopping parking lot in Australia has seemingly decided to take pity on drivers and try and reduce the anxiety which is sure to creep in when you’re trying to reverse into a spot with a line of 100 cars waiting impatiently behind you.

Then ending up in a space so small, you have to squash yourself to the width of a pencil in order to even get out of your vehicle.

Located at the Glebe Hill shopping center in Tasmania, the parking lot looks like most others in that it features spaces separated by white lines. However, rather than a single white line separating each space, this particular parking lot has rectangular boxes between each space.

This subsequently increases the size of the gap between cars, making it easier to manoeuvre your vehicle in and also actually get in and out yourself. The boxes might mean fewer cars can fit into the lot, but it’s a price I’d certainly be willing to pay.

It seems so simple – why haven’t we been doing this the entire time?
