flag Modern SUVs exceed size of 1970s-designed UK parking spaces, causing potential damage.

flag In the UK, modern SUVs are too large for traditional parking spaces designed in the 1970s, causing potential damage to cars. flag The average family SUV is around 4.8 meters long and 2.4 meters wide, while parking bays haven't been updated since 1976. flag This mismatch leads to a gap of about 50cm between parked vehicles. flag The UK managing director of YourParkingSpace, Andy Syrett, notes that while cars now have parking sensors, the issue persists due to unchanged parking bay sizes. flag Richard Hebditch from Transport & Environment UK argues for stricter limits on car widths to solve the problem.
