Fuller claims (by way of
the diagram below) that the Dymaxion car is easier to
park and fits into smaller spaces, when parallel parking.
The heading and notes on the sketch read;
PARKING COMPARISON
A 16ft. STANDARD CAR MUST TAKE 24FT.
TO PARK IN WHILE A 19FT. DYMAXION
CAN PARK IN A SPACE OF 20FT.
NOTE THAT DYMAXION PROJECTS ONLY
(indecipherable) INTO TRAFFIC LANE
WHILE STANDARD CAR MUST PROJECT
(indecipherable).
The diagram above is from;
The Dymaxion World of Buckminster Fuller
by Robert W. Marks, published by Southern
Illinois University Press in 1960.
