A parallel parking system may include a controller which generates an alert when a discrepancy between a permitted parking distance that is defined by local requirements and a recommended parking distance D3 that is defined by a minimum distance D1 between an object adjacent to an available parking place to avoid contact with the object 304 and an open vehicle door 302, D2. The alert is generated when the recommended distance exceeds the permitted distance D4. The local requirements may be local traffic laws or parking regulations, and may be determined from the vehicles location, such as by a GPS signal sent to the controller.
