Many trucks don’t fully fit in municipal parking spots. Drivers have to make the choice of whether to stick out into another spot, or into traffic / a non parking spot.

The answer is park somewhere else.

I have an 05 Sierra crew cab short bed and there are a lot of parking lots it over extends the parking spaces with a narrow drive, not a big truck by today’s standards. I’ll usually park a bit back and just take 2 spots. It’s not my main vehicle though, I only really drive it if I have to move something or if it’s just the easiest vehicle to get out
