[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I absolutely love pulling forward into a space and parking as close as I can get to the car that backed into (or pulled through) the space in front of me. I know that person is going to come back with their purchases and try to load them into their car -- somehow (not sure what their plan was) -- and [b]they won't be able to open the trunk because my bumper is in the way.[/b]
Park the way God intended -- forward.[/quote]
Trunks open up not out. Are you saying you park your car on top of the one in front of you?[/quote]

The morons that park like this drive SUVs. The trunk opens up and out. Except when my car is 1/8" away.[/quote]

My Mercedes SUV open up.  So even if you touched my bumper it wouldn't hit your car.   All of this talking does not erase the fact that it is safer to back in and has been proven to be safer.  If you can't back in, you are a poor driver. Some driving skills take practice, i.e. backing in and parallel parking.  If you never do these things, then how can you become good at it?  This is one thing I truly admire my DH on, he can parallel park in one swift motion.  His skill made me want to be a better driver.  So every chance I get, I practice these skills.  I am a patient driver, so I don't mind waiting a few seconds if I'm behind a driver that decides to back in. We are teaching our teenage children to do the same when driving.  I'm backing the GLS in every.single.time. [/quote]
