Cue us green horns in.
If you back them in (perpendicular to the curb) you can get four carts in the normal Spanish Spring/Sumter Landing parking spaces. If you parallel park you can get two - so perpendicular to the curb is preferred. When you park in a normal parking place / diagonal like in the shopping malls, you should park on the right or the left so a second cart can park on the other side. There is nothing more irritating than going to the store and finding a golf cart parked in the middle of a parking spot. It wastes a parking spot for a cart and takes up a parking spot for a car (for the cart that had to park elsewheres).
