Parking, Late To Salat, Relax

Im watching this Arabic show called " If the Prophet was amongst us" and they did something very creative,informative and funny at the same time....

When you are late to salat where do you end up parking?
 
In this episode the host of the show the host went outside the mosque and he put a green cover over any cars that were parked wrong or blocking someone else. On the green cover in white arabic writing it said : "If he was with us" referring to the Prophet Muhmmad.
 
When the driver of the car would come back to thier car the host would ask this question....
 
He said we rush into the salat and we park wrong, but its like the Prophet already knew people would do this and then he brings to our attention the following hadith :
 
The Messenger of Allah said: "When the Iqamah is called for the prayer, do not come running. Come walking with tranquility. Whatever you catch up with, pray, and whatever you miss, complete it."
 
The Prophet is saying do not rush to the salat, so even if you have to park properly and then walk slowly to the salat its okay! Do not run!! He even gives us permissions to catch up on our salat only what we can.
