Amusing footage of a tourist in New Zealand attempting to reverse parallel park a number of times only to fail repeatedly, and have his female passenger change seats to do it for him.

The video, shot in Lake Wakatipu, Oueenstown at the weekend, captures the series of failed attempts, before the woman in the passenger seat decides to take over and parks perfectly first time.

"Hysterical laughter by us behind the camera filming it," the filmer wrote online.

Tourists in a rental car attempting a reverse parallel park on the beach of Lake Wakatipu in Queenstown, NZ. Many failed attempts by the male before the female passenger runs around, takes over and parks perfectly first time while the male watches from the curb. Hysterical laughter by us behind the camera filming it.
