Idiots that can't drive properly maybe drive until their wheels touch the kerb? I very rarely see this in the UK, that's madness.

Fun fact, when I visited the USA I was very confused by these weird concrete slabs they had in their car parks along each parking space.

Turns out, enough of their drivers are incompetent enough at driving that they're put there for them to bump up against as they're parking, because they aren't able to figure out how to park properly by themselves xD amazing.

Considering that this picture wasn't taken in the USA, I'd say that's a success on the Americans' part to anticipate stupidity.

Cool story. You'll note that both the plates on the cars and the signage in the image show that this isn't the US in the picture.

So, the Americans came up with a solution to a problem that clearly occurs in Europe as well?

The US doesn't have compulsory drivers education to obtain a drivers license, so most people have a broad set of bad practices while driving. No one teaches people in the US how to drive safely and with etiquette.
