People that back into parking spots

[spike]

Saw a guy in a huge pickup yesterday drive down the parking lane (in the correct direction) and then he decides to park in the diagonal spot by backing in. So he had to basically turn around between the rows of parked cars inch-by-inch-by-inch to back into the spot so that when he leaves the parking lot he’ll drive the wrong fucking direction down the lane.

everything about this approach to parking just builds and compounds the chaos. these people are deranged, lacking any self awareness, analytical thinking ability, or concern for the greater good. we live in a fucking society.

All us other drivers that were trying to park and/or leave were pissed. We’re laying on our horns. Just a stupid, selfish prick. There were probably 5-6 of us just stuck there waiting.

People are going to start getting shot over this crap.

That was my thought while I sat there

I can guarantee that you won't spike. Your safe, even if you suddenly start backing in 100% of the time.

how about this rain lately?

Had to wait for one of these shitstains yesterday. Was carefully parking next to a parking garage pillar, he had a smug, satisfied look on his face as he just cut it, and I swear to god the spot on the other side of him was empty. Nice work, you fucking dork. And of course the spot behind him was empty too, so no point to maneuver backwards in the first place. Can we start arresting or heavily fining these people as public nuisances?

I honestly never considered this as an issue but fuck me have I been noticing it lately! Been held up waiting for people doing this a few times in the past week. I like to give them a little golf clap once they are done.

I actually back into parks every now and again, particularly when parking against hard walls as I drive a bigger car and the rear camera is helpful in getting the towball as close to the wall as possible, but I am always considerate of other drivers around me and rarely ever hold anyone up at all. I'm also a shit-hot reverser as well. I kill it with a trailer on the back too.

also like 200 people live in WA, so the roads and lots wouldn't be too busy.

i've been advised that a grocery store in the area has put up signs in their lot asking customers to not back into spots. the tide could be turning, friends.

easiest way around this is to find a spot where the opposite spot is open and just drive right on it. can make your quick escape but not be seen as a d-bag

I’ve seen on multiple occasions where this was an option, yet the driver still chose to back in. Infuriating. In fact, it inspired the OP.

even worse than backing into a back to back parking space like most parking lots are the single aisle parking spots that are at an angle and you see someone backing into it. you are now going counter to the flow of traffic to pull out and are going to cause a wreck

Yeah that’s insane, those people should be locked up.

When leaving, guarantees a big, wide turn out into the opposite lane, hindering traffic flow once again. Double banger.

some of those people are just trying to smoke pot behind their car w/o bothering people.
