It's something of a necessity in the UK. A lot of high streets in town centres have on-street parking which are regulated just by the sizes of the vehicles currently there - there rarely any defined parking spaces on the roadside. Parallel parking is an essential skill to be able to park on the roadside in most major towns.
That, or there's outdoor car parks or multi-storey car parks at shopping centres or large event venues for those who prefer to find a marked-out space to drive into.
That said, it's nothing that can't be practised with two cones and a plank of wood in a clearing somewhere, if you're so inclined.
