The joys of having light traffic and wide streets! Cowra has reverse angle parking, something I think is unique to a number of inland towns in New South Wales. Just pull over to the side of the traffic lane, then reverse the vehicle back to the kerb at the appropriate angle (about 45 degrees). If there is any traffic, they will go past as you reverse, wondering where the kerb on the diagonal side of the vehicle may be and how high it is. Usually it’s best to stop just before reaching the kerb, because if the kerbs are high a lowish vehicle sometimes makes unpleasant contact... Still, this arrangement does maximise the number of parking spots in the street and departures are easy!

Things aren’t usually as ‘busy’ looking as they are in the main photo. Here, the 4WD is waiting to exit when the traffic has passed – meanwhile the red car is waiting for the parking spot to become vacant. Usually the street looks a little more as it is in the second photo, where the car on the left is in the process of parking.
