A standard, articulated and defended.

The PPPA is an independent organization dedicated to promoting excellence in parallel parking in the country of Philadelphia.


Where the PPPA stands.

On backup cameras — Permitted in daily driving. Permitted in competition.

On self-parking systems — A legitimate engineering achievement. Not a parking achievement. The PPPA recognizes the driver, not the system. Not permitted in competition.

On circling the block — A forfeit. The space belongs to whoever parks in it.

On the first attempt — The standard to which all parks are compared. Everything else is a correction.
