Shopping Car Parking this Christmas
An interesting article on Current Affairs tonight. If you can hold on and wait for a maximum of 6 minutes you can find a carpark in even the busiest Shopping Centres this Christmas.
Mathematician, Dr Cresswell has worked out, using mathematical calculation, just how easily it is to locate a parking spot without driving around and around.
She calculated that if the average time shopping is 3 hours, and allowing for other factors, then the maximum wait time in a block of 30 cars will be no longer than 6 minutes. So by just waiting by a large block of cars with a little patience, anyone can find spot.
They put it to the test...and it worked
