[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is backing in easier? I have a minivan and it is so hard to see when backing in.[/quote]

Minivan and my DH's SUV are impossible to back up (even with all of the back up cameras)- they are too big![/quote]

Yeah. I wonder what size cars these posters who claim that backing in is easier have. [/quote]

I back an ambulance up into regular size parking spaces several times a day with just the side mirrors. No camera, no rear view mirror. We back in because it's departmental policy, extensive studies by IIHS have shown that backing into a space is far safer when leaving the space than backing out.

Plus, backing into a space shows that a person is capable of forethought and strategic planning, whereas people who pull into spaces tend to be all about the moment, instant gratification, and are very poor thinkers overall.

If you can't back up into a space, you shouldn't have a driver's license. You are a hazard to yourself and everyone around you. [/quote]
