How does parking fix this, though? The same number of cars need to arrive and leave at approximately the same time. Each car takes up the same amount of space.

How does parking fix this, though? The same number of cars need to arrive and leave at approximately the same time. Each car takes up the same amount of space. And it's not like children can all just run around the parking lot looking for their own parent's car, which is almost certainly in a different place than it was at drop-off, never mind the danger of having a parking lot full of lost children wandering around.

- taeric 3y agoSince you aren't expecting that many cars to be parked, necessarily, you can take advantage of the parking lot to provide a queuing area for the cars that are showing up. Yes, you probably want it done in such a way that cars can, in fact, also park during events. But it doesn't have to be a fixed configuration lot.
