    If you’re always reparking your car you run a risk of a collision with a distracted driver. If someone sees a car going into a spot its not unreasonable to think they’d assume the car is out of play and can be ignored. When you back out to adjust back between the lines eventually one of those times someone won’t be paying attention to you.]

      Don’t go in forwards. Never understood why people insist on going forwards into a parking bay. Less control, needs more room, harder to leave.

      I just assume people that go in forwards can’t drive.

        I feel like it’s also an outlook/mentality thing.

        I personally am happy to take a few extra seconds parking, because I see it as spending time to make life easier, faster and safer for my future self when I come to leave.

        Zooming in forwards is like “I care about now more than I care about later”

        If I want to be able to access my trunk easily I will have to go forwards.

        Otherwise I always go backwards.
