Street parking can have just a big of an impact as garages and lots, as it leads to wider roads, people hunting for a spot, and a hazard for bicyclist. Street parking has always seemed slightly insane to me. You take a dense city that's already tough to get around by road and then you sacrifice half your road area for people to park on. Instead of one car park entrance you have to keep an eye on for emerging vehicles, any one of a thousand cars could suddenly move into the road with no notice. It's a safety and efficiency nightmare.
