Parallel Parking optimization (metric units)

In my brief moment of semi-fame, my exploration of parallel parking ended up in the New York Times 10th Annual Year In Ideas magazine http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/12/19/magazine/ideas2010.html#Perfect_Parallel_Parking. Shortly after there was a front page article in the local New Orleans Times-Picayune http://www.nola.com/education/index.ssf/2011/01/offbeat_lusher_charter_school.html I certainly have to credit Professor Simon Blackburn, University of London, for his original work which sparked my interest in the subject. https://www.ma.rhul.ac.uk/SRBparking Even though Geogebra was never mentioned by name in any of the news articles, it was central to my being able to visualize the problem better and test/confirm my equations. This Geogebra model is in metric units. I've also posted a US customary model at http://www.geogebratube.org/material/show/id/3022
