angled parking

Oblique vehicle arrangement

Angled parking is a parking arrangement where vehicles pull into spaces set at a diagonal to the curb, typically 45 to 60 degrees.

It allows easier entry and exit than parallel parking and fits more cars than perpendicular parking along the same curb length: The downtown streets have angled parking on both sides.
