The curb along the roadway, should be close to parallel. I suppose if you were putting in a new road, you would want everything straight.
How about when building a frame structure, like a house.
If you are building the angled portion of a rood, you need to make sure that the cross members are symmetrical.
In your race car, the path from front tire to back should be parallel on both sides.
I'm sure there are hundreds more...
