Do you make your parking decisions based on the ins or the outs? In Japan, much like in Singapore, parking lots are designed for “butt in” and most drivers do park “butt in”. The desire for safety when one leaves a spot (as opposed to the convenience of “head in,” which most American drivers seem to prefer) seems to be the common reason among these “butt in” parkers. Here in this parking lot, the “head in” parkers seem to have gone against the regulated traffic direction.
