People that back into parking spaces are INSANE.

I do it most times I go to work. I started it when working IT for an oil company in LaPorte. They required it. You gotta be ready to haul ass when shyt start blowing up.

Then there's that one mother fukker who has to park right beside you:francis:

Always, makes me wanna go get a forklift towmotor and move they vehicle.

I remember soon after I bought my car, I went to shoot pool with a homie and he brought his kid with him. He parked in the spot right next to me, we leaving and his kid grabbed his rear door and flung that muthafukka open like he had the Winter Soldier arm. I heard that door ever so slightly touch the side of my car door, that nikka knew I would have damn near killed him for what his seed did. Luckily the car got detailed out by a shop and the mark came out.

This the TRUTH. Really you don't have to back in if you park at the end of the lot. Of course some hater might park next to you.
The GOAT is that rare occurrence when you are parked at the end and there is an open grass area on the driver's side.

You got all the room you want :blessed:

It's hard to reverse in on uneven ground, like if the road slopes horizontally from side to side, so that the parking space is on higher ground than the road. This is because I drive a manual and I have to ride the clutch hard in that situation, when you need to make slow and precise manoeuvres on a steep slope. I would rather spare my clutch the extra work. You want to avoid reversing up hills in a manual, trust me on that.

It's no problem to reverse out because the road is on the low ground, so you don't need to declutch or accelerate at all, just let go of the brake and let gravity do its job.

The parking space where I live at is on a very steep incline relative to the road I pull in from, so I don't ever reverse in. The health of my clutch is more important to me than looking "manly" on TLR :mjlol: you can't get manlier than driving a manual anyway, regardless of how you park. Require assistance to change gears brehs :dame:

I do it all the time in my driveway, but I don't do it in public unless there's no other car on either side. I usually just park in a spot where my car will already be facing outward.
