Comment on Why? There is enough space on the parking lot

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.

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.
