[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly because of this:

The fact is that backing into a parking space so that you can pull forward when leaving is actually safer and can help reduce your risks of injuries to yourself and others. The American Automobile Association (AAA) recommends all drivers back into parking spaces whenever possible.[/quote]

Yup, this.  I’m have good spatial awareness and it doesn’t add much time for me to back in.  Regardless, I don’t mind wait a few minutes for someone to back in if it reduces injuries.[/quote]

It doesn’t take a few minutes to back in.

It’s like an extra 5 seconds to park and saves time when you’re pulling out.

People who can’t wait 5 seconds for me to park can kiss my a$$.

It does take some people a few minutes - but you’re right that it saves time when leaving.  The added time, if any, is so minimal and it’s so much safer.  (I also couldn’t care less if people get annoyed, as per my response to another PP)[/quote]

A few minutes? No.

You have no concept of time. [/quote]

Lol - I have an outstanding time sense, actually.  If people don’t position their vehicle correctly to start, and the space is tight, it can definitely take two minutes.  Moreover, I said “some people” not “all” or “most.”  [/quote]
