[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone one of you people nattering on about safety has a rear camera that allows you to back up with certainty that nothing is behind you or coming your way. The insistence on backing into parking spaces in parking garages is a ridiculous affectation, and when you do it with a line of people behind you, it's rude. Here's the difference between the waiting that is done when you back in versus the waiting that is done when you back out. When you back in, everyone behind you has to wait for you (and IME, 90% of you can't get it on the first try). When you back out, *you* wait until the coast is clear, instead of making everyone else wait. Are you ass-first people also the ones who don't know how to zipper merge? Maddening. [/quote] Not everyone has back up cameras. Also it’s not always easy to see if there is something/someone behind you. People, including little kids, walk behind you without warning. Tinted windows in the vehicles next to you prevent you from seeing down the lane. People drove through parking lots too fast. People get road rage if you start to pull out they were not in your view. People should choose the safest option under the circumstances and that might be backing into a parking space even though it causes a minor inconvenience for others. Accidents cause far greater inconvenience that a second back up. [/quote]
