From Rovaniemi, northern Finland, that is damn scary :shock:

Beware, roads in here are not safer than roads in other places, we have them too :shock: :shock:

What was she trying to do? Getting out or in that parking space?

I'm not a parking wonder either but I feel I have a slight entitlement to come up with the famous Snatch quote:

Story never tells if she got out there, but I'm afraid that she did, that is if clutch did not burn up or fuel run out before she got some help from some 'good' helper person.

She really should not drive, but there are more of those here, but somehow they manage to keep their licenses from year after year, also it is considered bad to ever say nothing bad about such persons driving, one is excepted to be understanding that not everyone has equally skilled drivers, I just wonder why there is need for driver's license then? :lol: :lol:

Oh yes, she had been trying quite a while already before filming did start, when they did start filing she was returning to car after checking how little space there is left...

She was trying to get into traffic. I think it should be clear to any sane person that if driving is so difficult on those speeds, she never should even attempt to go past 1kph with a car, but maybe she was not sane person :roll:

You obviously know that all too well, one lives too close to you :lol:

3 times car has reversed to my car front, everytime my car was stationary and other driver was in all cases middle age woman, that hardly is not a conincidence, either majority of drivers near me are middle aged womens or then there is huge amount of pathetic drivers among middle aged womens :roll:

It is indeed very scary.
