I think most that back into spots do it as an "image" hung. They think it makes them look tough/manly/cool.

Both pale in comparison to the pull through.

When I was a valet driver in college they said statistically it is safer to back cars in which is why valets always back cars in, not because its quicker to get out

I’ll tell you this, reverse cameras have not helped people park backwards.

Yes. Due to the fact that only your front wheels turn, it’s much easier in and out of the spot if you back into it.

I back in at work and my apartment garage but if I’m in a busy retail lot Ill typically pull in since it seems more socially acceptable to hold up traffic backing out than in.

It would be easier to check any of the other 350 threads on this.

The poor Book board reaches back to mid April. Sad that so few here like to read.
