The driveways curve and this presents more of a danger when backing out of the driveway. Just fyi.
Tough on some areas on villa streets for emergency vehicles to pass with cars parked in the streets. That seemed to be the defining item as to whether or not street parking was considered to be an issue.

And you're right - narrower streets in the villa areas make increases the potential for getting a street-parked car backed into!
