it's not lame or anything, park like that really hurt your alignment especially if you really turn it to the max. best way is to get it adjust by mechanic. at the moment just park your car and engage into gear. aviod steep slope. or if you don't mind, keep 2 bricks in the boot.

ok lah. imagine this.

its a nice sunday morning, and you're going up some hill. suddenly, your girlfriend says, lets stop here and have a picnic. okay dokay. you park your car, and you suddenly realize the handbrakes are not working properly. so you just rub your dashboard softly, and *chingching* a mechanic appears. and he adjusts it for you. woohoo.

now if only that worked. sadly, in such a situation, you only have that tyres thing as your final solution, so you use it, right?

the bricks thing is so..
what if in the process of taking out your bricks the car rolls back..wee.. biggrin.gif then you become the bricks biggrin.gif

let's be practical man. you don't 'suddenly' decide for a sunday morning picnic. if you gonna say if, my IF is: if it was me, i'll have it done as soon as possible. it's not like a hazard light failure where you can ignore simply because you're not using it often. more to the point, it won't take long and it's not going to cost much. yes your method does work but is that the only thing you're going to do? when your car alignment ran, you're going to drive with your steering few cm off center. one side of your tyres gonna worn out faster than the other. it also causes uneven wear to the brake pads, strecthes the rocker arms fitting which holds your suspension and wheels to the car. so in the end you still gonna bring it to the mechanic only this time it costs you even more. what was a problem which originally can be fixed with a spanar turned castatrophic all because of your stupidity.
