People who back into parking spots: Why? - lemm.ee

To me, it seems objectively easier to pull into a parking space forward and then back out of the space when you are ready to leave. You don’t have to line up with the lines while driving backwards, and it’s easier to keep from hitting other cars as well. So why back in? To me, the only advantage I can think of is that you can get out quicker, technically.

It’s easier to park backwards compared to forward, specially if the space is narrow.
this. There is a reason why you reverse when parallel parking a tight spot and not going forward.
Oh my god, exactly this. The US is the only place I know with lots big enough to pull into. Everywhere else, this is a terrible idea.
