So agree with this ... backing into a spot takes skill not everyone has it ... if you make your drivers licence in Europe it becomes a requirement or you do not pass. Quote:

Besides I like to keep in shape and a short walk to the store never killed anyone Quote:
Last year my daughter borrowed our DD while I worked on her 535is Bimmer, she hit someone while backing out from a shopping centre parking spot. The spot on her right hand side was free and as she backed out she hit one of those ladies rushing into the parking spot to my daughters right. She did not see the lady since she looked left while backing out. I asked her did you not use the backup camera and checked all around? She said no sorry I did not. Well both the lady and my daughter were at fault so it was decided by the insurance company. The incident cost me $1000- that was my deductible on our DD (damage my car rear right hand bumper - lady front left hand bumper). I'm sure that all that posted negative comments on backing in must agree that this would not have happened if my daughter had backed into a spot or parked in such a way that she could pull out without reversing the car. Ask your insurance agent next time you have a chance how many fender benders happen in shopping centre parking lots. You be surprised. I avoid driving thru shopping centre parking lot lanes for fear some one backs out right into my car. People just don't seam to look or they might be thinking .... Look out here I come ... so backing into a spot or as far away as possible is my preventive measure
