Backing up here! Watch out! Stay for the show!

Beep – Beep – Beep – Beep

I witnessed this morning a woman back her car into a parking spot with a curb on her left and no cars to the right…

only to back up, pull forward, and pull back again to try and fit in the spot…

only to get out to walk away and see she had a good 3 feet before her rear bumper was at the curb…

only to get back into her car and back up further, which I assume was the last time because I didn’t want to stand and watch the show.

I say, if you can’t back into a spot with minimal adjustment after the first try – don’t back into the spot in the first place. And if you can’t gauge your distance from the curb to your rear bumper – don’t back into the spot in the first place. And if there’s a chance you’ll have to get back into your car and try again after backing up once – say it with me now – don’t back into the spot in the first place.

Thus concludes today’s sermon.
