This is why, when I have to visit a city, I much prefer to park my car at the first convenient opportunity and walk. Having a car is pretty straightforward and definitely a must in the rural areas where I live (sadly, public transit is effectively nonexistent), but driving a car in a city is difficult and often terrifying, specifically because of the limited control (you're stuck going forward at a particular speed, and if you realize too late that the GPS/map/printed out directions/copilot navigator was indicating that street to turn on, you just have to keep going and hope that you can loop back around somehow without losing too much time...or you risk permanent/exorbitantly expensive damage to your car, someone else's car, and/or one or more humans).
