The aliens on alpha Centauri are 12 ft tall blue hunter-gatherer humanoids. Not much of a help for your parking problems.
We know everything (every effect, etc) has a speed-of-light limit.
Imagine a metronome ticking out time. It ticks back and forth.
Put the metronome on a space ship. Now slowly increase the velocity of the space ship. As the space ship speed increases, the "pendulum" weight now has more and more velocity (the space ships velocity plus the back-and-forth velocity). The sum of those velocities cannot exceed the speed of light, so as the spaceship velocity increases, the metronome will tick more slowly (||x+y||<c and x-->c, right?), until, asymptotically, the metronome cannot move along its pendulum swing b/c the spaceship is moving at c.
(The metronome is a proxy for every chemical and physical process going on with you / your spaceship - they electro-chem-quantum-etc tick out their normal evolution, which must cease at c)
It's a clockwork view of the universe that might not be strictly true, but it settles some cognitive dissonance so I'm clinging to it like a life raft.
Lorentz invariance means the laws of physics remain the same in all inertial reference frames. Also a spaceship going 99.9999…% the speed of light.
This leads to effects like time dilation, length contraction and the speed of light itself.
The metronome can keep going at any speed independent on the speed of its own reference frame.
But, all the observable effects are the same under my "life raft" mental model: To an outside observer their time has stopped, to an inside observer it has not (I'm just thinking slowly). And the laws of physics are unchanged - as a function of time e.g., the number of clockwork steps per metronome tick.
