Today's parallel parking challenge has a twist ... it's not the cars Charlie focuses on ... it's the shopping carts. So do shoppers misbehave in parking lots like we think?

Today's parallel parking challenge dovetails nicely with Superbowl Sunday. Charlie jumps all over deflate gate, but this time with car tires. Do you think deflation makes parallel parking easier?

Charlie changed it up for today's parallel parking challenge, because this one's not today ... it's tonight. He got 3 really cute chicks and deeply examines whether parallel parking is easier or harder after hours.

We went off road for today's Parallel Parking Challenge. Our photog Charlie went up in the Hollywood Hills hiking area to watch how people park their cars before hitting the trail. So you think being fit makes you a better driver?

Today's parallel parking challenge is JetBlue adjacent ... our photog Charlie went to LAX and tested 3 drivers under extreme stress. And as long as we were there, we wanted to find out why they felt a sense of obligation to schlep their significant others to and from the airport.

Sorry rest of the country ... our photog Charlie decided to test the skills of 3 drivers who were trying to parallel park against the 80 degree backdrop of the ocean in Santa Monica. And one of these dudes sounds suspiciously like Matt McConaughey.

Our photog Charlie is in the hoitiest of toitiest areas of L.A. ... Montana Ave. in Santa Monica. This time there's a real price if the parallel parkers do a good job. Charlie's willing to make it rain in the meter.

Our photog Charlie hit the streets of Venice for today's parallel parking challenge, but this time Charlie's given drivers a ticket ... a TMZ ticket that appropriately describes their parking acumen.

Our photog Charlie is embedded in the Venice area today and there are cool prizes for the people who take our parallel parking challenge. Well, all of them are cool except one which is really lame.

TMZ's Charlie turned the camera on ourselves, challenging the driver of the TMZ Hollywood Tour to park the bus between 2 cars. The tourists go along for the ride ... but Charlie wasn't so lucky.

You gotta see... and hear it!

We've been showing you some really funny parallel parking challenges over the last few weeks ... but today we spread our wings .... it's perpendicular parking, baby! So you think it's easy?

Our photog Charlie went to Koreatown for today's parallel parking challenge. Since the area is known for karaoke Charlie asked each of the 3 drivers for their favorite tune ... after they parked. Do ya think someone picked Psy?

TMZ's photog Charlie just made an interesting turn in our parallel parking challenge. He went to a one-way street in downtown L.A. and watched drivers park on the wrong side of the street. One guy was awesome ... but turns out there's a good reason he has mad skills.

Just because you're rich doesn't mean you know how to navigate your car in parallel fashion, and our photog Charlie proved the point on the mean streets of Bev Hills.
