So my grandma and I got talking yesterday and she made a fun observation. She claimed that more men back up when parking then woman do. Now just as a disclaimer she is 93 years old and the sweetest little thing so I would never take her random ideas as fact but it did make me curious. Do men back in to spots more or do woman?And as an additional question do you use the revers camera? I worked for a season delivering for Amazon a year ago and they made back in everywhere or pull through. And do t k ow that I can back up anymore without that stupid dash screen with the revers camera. lol!! anyways. What do you do?

So do you back in to your spot or pull straight in?
Oh my gosh that was so funny! And it does definitely make it harder to use the trunk. Maybe I’m just too single still but I use the back seat more anyways so that isn’t an issue for me. But I can see how it would he with kids. I was also taught to back up during the winter because it is much easier to drive forward out of a pile of snow then it is to back out. But again if that isn’t an issue then what is the point. I see your reasoning! Lol!
Yeah I have to use the trunk a lot for a stroller and to change diapers in there. I need the room. I'll very very occasionally back up when washing the car or fixing it but for regular parking I'll just pull in. Anytime I see someone back in now I automatically think about this video and him saaying "I'm soo manly" especially if it's a guy 😂
I mean I definitely feel like i am goi g to use that “I’m gonna pout you in a hurst if you don’t pout it in reverse.” From now on! And yeah all the kiddo stuff! That makes sense! I feel like in that case I would even get in to parking further back just so that if I need to It would be easier to do whatever. Like in the back of most parking lots.
I use to park far away when I first became a parent but not anymore I just park wherever so we can hurry up and go places without anyone crying or running off
Wow! I think I would have called it quits after two. Lol! You go girl! Also yeah I feel like roping kids in to a car while running arounds is the hardest part.
I generally back in, most of the time. It's just a habit from getting groceries, or whatnot. Easier to unload the car with the trunk closer to the house. 🤷♂️
I've also never used the backup camera, either. Another habit, I guess. I've been driving since before backup cameras were a thing, so not physically turning to look out the back window would seem wrong to me.
Yeah same but i just got so used to the cameras with those giant vans that it takes me reminding myself now. I guess I need to spend some time practicing again.
Results: I've never seen this as a gendered thing.
If I owned a car right now, I would pull in simply cause it's safer and easier. Backing in is harder unless you're a good driver and takes longer. Its only benefit is it makes leaving easier.
My driveway is behind my house, off an alleyway. I'll back in if I'm going to be loading or unloading my trunk, just to limit how much I'm walking around or leaving it open and exposed to anyone going down the alleyway. I'll also back in if its going to be brutally cold (like -30F) so if I need a jump start the hood and battery within are facing out and accessible.
Ah! Nice! Lol! Yeah I don’t like parking by other cars either! I reemember when I bought my current car, I had just picked it up and then drove to work. And when I came out at the end of the day there was a cart Leaning on it. I was furious! People are stupid some times.
It depends. Most of the time I pull straight in, but if I am at work and I want to leave as soon as I am able to then I back into the space in the morning. At stores I often pull straight in so the trunk is easier to get to when I buy stuff.
Interesting! So funny story; I actually almost failed my driving test the first time because I tried to back up and couldn’t do it. But I’m pretty good at it now.
