Grammar check please?

Hi there,

Can you tell me if I am correct in these sentences, please?


I parked my car in the parking slot.

My car was parked in the parking slot.

My car parked in the parking slot. (Ungrammatical)


Also which word is proper in this situation, please?

The parcel was too big to slit/fit in the small mail box. (The slit is small)


Thanks in advance.

I say and hear the parking space , not the the parking slot. I parked my car in the parking slot. This kind of repetition is correct grammar, but often sounds a bit silly.
