A car is supposed to make your life easier and more helpful. In most cases this is true, however when you are trying to park and drive on Teas Tech campus this is not the case. Texas Tech is one of the biggest land areas for a college campus, however the campus is not equipped to handle the amount of cars that the students own.

Although this has only happened on rare occasions, this should never happen.
