Getaway drivers.

What about people who pull through perpendicular parking spots and park instead in the spot in front so they don't have to back out.  I do this.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

You have a higher chance of collision with the pull-through IMO.

Can confirm.

Also, watch out for their really exaggerated move where they look like they are going to turn left into a parking spot, but are really just getting it all lined up to pull straight backwards into a spot on the right.

People who cross the double line to park in diagonal spots on the other side of the street piss me off way more then people who back into spots.

i read a really long article analyzing back in drive out parking that made it seem like a good idea.

also i feel like we had a long debate about backing in to parking spaces on here some time in the not so distant past.

I read an article that people who back in are more anxious to leave whatever they are going to and people that pull in are more anxious to get there.

Enjoy waiting for them as they take a 10 point turn to get it in the spot.

Don't buy a big truck if you are too stupid to pull it in nose first like the rest of civilized society.

Statistically speaking, most parking lot accidents occur when backing out of parking spots. Backing in allows the driver to pull out forward with a better view/less chance of an accident. It's science.

And yes, some extremely large, safety-obsessed companies make it mandatory for all of their lots.

It's not the pulling in that is the problem, it's the backing out when the idiots next toyou park on the yellow line while you are away

this is why backing in is always a smart move
