This seems like the best place to make this point...

If you are one of those individuals who insists on backing into parking spaces in public parking lots, you are a douchebag and a dumbass.

That is all.

Back-in parking (when done properly) is the safest method of parking there is.

 

This is settled case law, both on Shag 1.0, Shag 2.0 & in the general population.

Also let's you back your truck in further if there is a parking stop in the space.

 

Parking right in front of a fire hydrant:

Except for the fact that you didn’t make a point at all.

no pic, but what's the surly opinion on trucks that back in and block pathways, especially with a trailer hitch?

personally, fuck that shit.

So, you do the reverse gear driving out of the clearer area (parking lot aisles) into a tighter space, surrounded closely by other vehicles, often needing one or more adjustments and making others wait for you to get out of the way rather than back out of the tight space into the clearer area where the typical driver can easily accomplish the task with a simple, standard, two-point turn?

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense.  No wonder there are so many people out there continuing this stupidity.

Overall (taking into account parking and leaving), it's faster, easier, and safer. Don't be angry you aren't as capable.

It is much easier and makes more sense for long wheelbase vehicles (i.e., trucks).  I bet you drive a Yugo.

This is ridiculous.  In a tight and crowded parking lot I will always back in if available.  It has been proven safer since you know your surroundings entering and less about your surroundings when exiting.

Maybe you should leave a few minutes earlier so waiting 30 seconds for us to park isn't such a big deal

I don't car if you're pulling in, backing in, paralleling... if you're taking 30 seconds to park, something is wrong with you.  Probably estrogen.

Absolutely zero need to do this when you're gapped by 1 space away from the nearest other vehicle & parked relatively in the weeds.

A troupe of dipshits & I think it all started with the red truck.

Got this series the other day when I was @ South Austin Medical Center to pick up my Mom.e2895ef50827852e6d334fbb6be4d028.jpg567c7cfcc5b573fc267856034aecc12c.jpgb5591da4bdc39239678821103b361818.jpg545bc4ba9272ef278003d5f217760299.jpg

Their choice in vehicle should foreshadow their mental capacity...

Do you also think the Earth is flat? Basic geometry skills tells you why backing in is superior and safer.

Lol. A camry? He really thought he could make it?  I actually saw some dumbass try the same thing down the steps right outside dkr at san jac and 21st.  A few weeks later they put in some pylons or something.

Lot somewhat full, still douchey

If he'd have backed in, he wouldn't have needed to leave all that room to open his door.

That's a chick car so female driver explains quite a bit.

I don’t know if they were afraid of the tree or the scary yellow parking block:

I’m afraid of the scary yellow parking block.  I tripped over one and broke boafma arms about 5 years ago.  Falling down sober is no way to go through life.

It’s also much easier to wind up straight in a spot while backing up.

Think of it this way, do you parallel parking while moving forward? Fuck no. Front end pushing the rear >>>> front end pulling the rear.

He's parking back so he can check if it's his car leaking or if those stains are from another car before him.

That 5.3L doesn't leak oil, just consumes it

I push in your mom’s rear.

That Land Rover seems like it high centers trying to get to the top. Minor amusement
And that's with a 110lb oriental driving. Imagine a full grown man behind the wheel.

FULL parking lot... Yup, that's me to the left - backed in - hoping they had someone who had to get in the passenger side. 

Why bother obscuring their plate?

Shopped at that Safeway a ton. That parking lot sucks and traffic gets to a standstill. Can’t blame him for trying a unique exit.
