Probably because people are bad at parking and it’s easy to pull forward till you feel your tires bump against the curb. Only problem is that with increasing safety standards usually resulting in longer hoods and bigger engine compartments for crumple zones, you get this.
drive till you hit something. helluva strategy.
I like, keep going till it sounds expensive
Bumpers are supposed to bump into stuff, right? /s
It’s not bad parking, lots of places use parking stops and you’re told/taught to pull up to them or the curb to park.
Where I am, if you don’t have parking stops, your curb must be 3m wide, to account for hood overhang and leaving the required space for handi egress.
That's just because driver's ed in the US if fucking horrible, and teaches the bare minimum to not kill other people while behind the wheel of a ton and a half of steel and aluminum. It doesn't teach you to be a good driver, just not completely incompetent.
Most people still forget most of the shit they learn there, though.
Funny, not from the US.
It’s good design regardless of the “competence” of the drivers. Oh, we also have snow, so sometimes you can’t see the curb or anything under the snow, so you stop when you hit the parking stop.
Shocking concept that conditions are different elsewhere than you….
Bad driving? That has nothing to do with bad driving smartass ... Hitting the curb with the wheel is normal when parking
One guy mounted the curb
