On Reddit, a user, who goes by @SuspiciousLettuce56, gained attention after sharing a video where a driver struggles to get out of a shopping center.
The video has the caption: "Shenanigans at Westfield Hornsby Carpark Entry".
Titled 'Driver's Agonizing Struggle to Exit Car Park at Westfield Hornsby,' the incident unfolded in Sydney's Upper North Shore. The driver found themselves in a sticky situation after their car became trapped.
In the footage, the driver was seen going the wrong way, attempting to make a three-point turn instead of reversing back out. This decision resulted in what can only be described as a '78-point turn'.
In the post, a Reddit user added: "Found this on Facebook and I use this entry as I come in to work at Hornsby".
The video showed the car was seen inching forward and backward for several long minutes before it finally mounted the curb.
After dozens of maneuvers, the driver managed to free the car and zoomed away, making viewers breathe a sigh of relief.
In the comments section, many questioned the driver's maneuvering skills, while others appreciated the comedic value of the situation. Some even shared their own experiences, admitting they had found themselves in similarly silly situations.
One person said: There's both a high level of stupidity and skill on display here.
A second wrote: Bro really decided that executing a 78-point turn was the only option.
While a third commented: I’m still confused as to why you would not just reverse out around the corner. But hey a 20-point turn also works I guess.
Another said: I can't be the only one looking at this thinking, how on earth do you even get into that situation?
I know exactly where this is. Was this an attempt to leave without paying for parking? Another user added
This is not the first time the driver has found themselves in agonizing situations.
On social media, a content creator known for owning a white Tesla Model Y shared an 'anxiety-inducing' photo of a Cybertruck parked in a garage.
The image, posted on the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, showed both Teslas visibly parked in a single garage.
The snug fit of the two cars sparked a range of reactions from viewers, further highlighting the amusing and sometimes perplexing situations drivers can find themselves in.
