this and other reasons like space efficiency and increased safety/comfort is why just putting all the parking in centralized areas next to the main access roads for an area is probably THE most trivial yet impactful design choice you can make.

i would say any sensible place does this, it’s done to at least some extent in any apartment area here in sweden (although the parking is generally still very close to the housing, sadly)

Some Netherlands cities do exactly this.
