GPS may know where they are, but it doesn't know whether they park at the curb or not. What galls me is that usually they could easily park at the curb, barely turning the wheels to get to it, but they don't, even when there are hardly any cars parked curbside. (Refer to the first paragraph to understand the UPS company policy.) ...

It's a lot more likely they don't pull in because the driver might get blocked in while he's away from the truck - not because they don't want to turn the wheel because it wears the suspension some infinitely small amount. I guess the next theory is that they all wear shorts in the summer because it saves weight?
