Bosch predicts stress-free parking garages

German drivers are in agreement – parking is a nightmare. Research from APCOA Parking Deutschland, a parking management company, found that drivers in Germany looking for a space accounted for 30% of urban traffic, whilst a 2015 study by insurance company Allianz showed that of 3,500 car accidents analysed, 40% involved a vehicle that was performing a parking manoeuvre. Unsurprisingly, a survey by digital industry association Bitkom found that 63% of German drivers would be happy to surrender control of their vehicle when executing a parking manoeuvre.
