There are ways of handling it but all have various numbers of people objecting to them for various reasons and with various degrees of vehemence. Bearing in mind that the map is an imperfect representation rather than reality itself, what I have done is extend the parking area so that one side of it is coincident with the road. https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/802286085 There are objections to this in that it could be inferred that cars can park with their bodies overhanging into the middle of the road, although I doubt many users would read the map as implying that. I think it better than the map indicating that the cars must hop like a kangaroo to get to the parking area. -- Paul
