[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last week. I honked at someone [b]who didn't see me as he was backing out[/b]. Before that, it's been years.  I couldn't tell you the last time I've been honked at   [/quote]

That’s on YOU. You’re supposed to let people back out of spaces.

Nope. The driver in the "flow of traffic" has right of way. Insurance company will put you at fault if you hit someone backing out of a parking space.[/quote]

You don't understand right of way.[/quote]

I guess your definition of "right of way" is whatever you are doing is right?

Because in this case, the person backing out is supposed to yield.[/quote]

No one has the right of way. Someone must yield it. If I start backing out and you turn into the aisle, I do not yield to you. I already started my traffic maneuver. Your presence does not give you immediate right of way because flow of traffic, whatever that is.[/quote]

DP but you are a terrible driver if this is your interpretation of how backing out and parking lot should operate. If you are most of the way out, then yes parking lot traffic should yield. But if you're less than halfway, you stop. And you should be going slow enough to be paying attention.
