Why in hell do the majority of people in nova back IN to parking spaces?? Huge pet peeve, holds up traffic flow and just overall seems harder. Are people that crap at backing up??

I personally don't back into spaces but I can understand why drivers do this. Trying to back out of a spot blocked by two mega SUVs or trucks and dodging cars bombing down the row at about 30 mph is very nerve wracking. If cars would actually slow down and let people back out instead of flipping you off when they almost hit you, maybe less would back into their spot.

Yep, backing out is an adventure. I always go where I can pull forward. Its usually farther out but its the only exercise I get.

For longer vehicles, backing in is the quickest way to enter a spot. Backing in will require one move when pulling in nose first may take several adjustments.

OP obviously young and inexperienced. Also, his annoyance at having to wait for someone to back into a spot indicates his behavior of not waiting for someone to backup out of a spot.

"Me-first": the current driving attitude of our roads. As opposed to "share the road" and "be courteous to other drivers" which is how we use to drive. Stopping for someone to back out of a parking spot, or into one for that matter, was common practice and the socially acceptable driving habit.

This goes for allowing others to merge or enter the road in front of us (in some circumstances) However, this doesn't excuse the person getting the break from exercising the same courtesy toward the generous driver by getting a move on it to allow traffic to resume its pace. Ugh.

This is too difficult for some. A new driver's education program is required.

niggers are famous for backing in when they actually park legally. park. But niggers are also well known for pulling right up to the building, and illegally parking, just so they don't have to park and walk 20 yards.

that's not true at all, 3 point turns are easy




they don't back in, their is a space infront of their space so they drive through one space into another so they never have to use REVERSE

HOWEVER - it's DANGEROUS because when people pull out is when most parking lot accidents happen (and people are hit):

people frequently forget to use signals

your car NEVER forgets to light up the reverse signal lights

Listen up i enjoyed your educated response. I am 38 and female, actually, have driven for 22 years. Never have i seen driving like in nova. I agree backing out is scary but the person who talked about reverse lights had a great point. Also, of course i allow people to get out of their spaces..and, not being from here originally, i also follow the let one car in rule on all roads. I just find the backing in obnoxious, time consuming, and was just trying to get feedback on whu it is done so frequently here.

It seems like most of the people I see backing into spots are rednecks.
It definitely holds up parking lot traffic. If you think about it, backing into a spot is very selfish because the person backing in is holding up other people from driving by and then when they leave they don't have to wait long yielding to pull out of the spot. Because of the time they spent backing in and holding others up from driving by they save time for themselves when they pull out.

It is very inconsiderate and self-serving.

I back in most of the time, but not at the expense of others. It's definitely faster to leave after backing in, and safer to back in than out. Ask any first responder. Plus those of us who were Girl Scouts (yes, even as a guy, you can--and must!--be a registered Girl Scout to participate in scouting activities with your daughter) are also taught to do so, again for safety reasons.

OP is without a clue. Not unusual here, alas.

It's absolutely safer and smarter to back into parking spaces. Military and first responders are trained to do this, and delivery people and pretty much anyone who needs to leave quickly with no surprises also know to reverse into the space. It isn't selfish, it's a better way to park. AAA and safety advocates recommend it because it is safer. Why do you see it more in NoVA? Maybe because we're smarter.

You, the one driving in the parking lot are suppose to do the yielding, not those pulling in and out of spots. It is a parking lot. Parking is what you do, Dip Shit.

Sorry the parking lot is a race track. No posted speed limits so I basically try to go as fast as I can. If I see someone backing out I can usually race past them before they inconvenience me. I also do this when I am walking in or out of stores. I am a pedestrian. I have the right of way. When I see someone backing out I walk behind their vehicle -- they have to yield to me.

When I taught vehicle operations courses for a company, our data showed tgat fewer accidents happened as a result of backing into place. Of course, first choice was to pull through a space, and ready to leave, nose first. But if that wasn't possible, one was to back into a space while THEY controlled the area/traffic pattern. Something you don't have, as you depart.

While it's been a while since teaching this, I'm sure the fact of the matter remains, and it's safer for the operator to back-in upon arrival. Of course, in this area, "me first" drivers had a hard time appreciating this, but I still back into spaces all the time.

I hope this post helps with some rationale.

I realize you are trolling but the driving behavior you describe is considered reckless in Virginia. There is a statute that specifically addresses it.

Because insurance companies are giving discounts to companies whose employees back into spaces. Stats show that more wrecks are caused by people backing out than backing in. Drivers ed companies teach it and in Maryland backing into a space is on the drivers test.

Discounts? Seriously? Haven't been offered one. Seems like this would be uneconomic for the insurance companies, since people could trivially lie. How do they check it?

This is a great topic, and reason enough insurance companies should offer discounts for those who willingly take driver retraining courses, every few years.

Oh and that above list, is fairly accurate.

For the record, here's an example. I was at Costco last week, and didn't back in, as doing so would have held up traffic. When leaving, I checked mirrors and reverse camera, started to back up, and a guy across the way backed up VERY FAST and hit me. Technically we were equally at fault, because we were both in reverse, but morally I believe it was all on him.

In any case, I don't actually care because my bumper didn't even get scratched. His, however, sort of exploded.

Bottom line: if either of us had backed in, we'd've seen the other and avoided the shunt.

If you're backing up, you're responsible. If you're both backing up, you're both equally responsible, like in that earlier post.

Here's your mistake and NOVA lesson of the day.

"and didn't back in, as doing so would have held up traffic"

This is northern Virginia and the way of doing business here is "fuck your fellow motorist". Holding up traffic at Costco? Most of the people there ride donkeys anyway. The proper way to handle this is to back VERY SLOWLY into the space and shimmy about 5-6 times until you either get it perfect or you have more than 6 cars waiting.

When you leave, make sure someone is waiting for your spot. Get in the car and send several emails, tweets and text messages before leaving - all the while without looking at or acknowledging those that are waiting. Don't leave until they have all given up. If you re going to drive here, you need to learn how to be a dick.

I think he means when an SUV aka car on the side of you or something is blocking your view, but either way you will have trouble seeing trunk or hood.

Always pull out slowly, so many people speed in parking lots it's annoying, whenever I see someone trying to reverse, I let them out because it's easier for me to see their reverse lights than me coming down the lane.

I really hate those new Mercedes LED reverse lights, they are TINY and I find them hard to see since they are also a light blue color and you aren't expecting that.

This NPR story explains the concept of delayed gratification in parking (backing in, pulling through) and possible economic rewards.

I would estimate if you are in an accident in this area the chances are one out of four the other drivers license is suspended which also means he has no insurance. A few years back the state implemented that they would suspend anyone's license who was behind on child support. Throw in all the illegals who have no license/insurance increases the chances you are shit out of luck

I frequent the Sterling/Lowes Island Food Lion and I see black people parked in front of the store pretty much every single time I go in. When a car is parked in front, 90% of the time it's a brutha, easily.

I get it. With Geico, you have to call and speak to a rep, and ask specifically for it.
