My suggestion is to put manual parking as default instead of auto parking.

U can see many newbs leaving their vehicles on the road/grass/sidewalk etc. which cause many unnecessary clamps just because they had auto park on. It would never happen if manual parking was set as default.
preventing such argument as: "If they dont have auto park on, they forget to park it first time and they have to pay... blah blah blah"
The first time u buy a vehicle it has kind of auto parking anyways. (also if u have manual park selected)
Yes, I totally agree, first time it has auto-park, you will probably park it where you want.
Only if you like it, then let them enable auto-park.

For me, A Newbie. I
AGREE. Causing an Accidents. :) :)
Doesn't leaving a vehicle parked on grass state "your vehicle cannot be saved here" or something along them lines?
I like this suggestion.

Yes it does, I guess he means the cases when car is abandoned but IN parking range (example: sidewalk at owned house).
This suggestion may help, and it takes almost no work to realize, but I think real newbs don't have house and own car. Who is pro enough to have vehicle, should be pro enough to set parking in preferences. In my opinion admins won't have much less work with clamping even if this gets made.
So, its a +0,5 from me. :D

Default parking mode for new players is set to "manual", vehicles will not park automatically when player exits except for new vehicles that haven't been parked yet.
I have my bike parked near bone county warehouse: I get out at an other parking and: Vehicle Parked. Set to manual? :NO:

that could have been changed in the time between that was added and now.
+1 for suggestion
