Driving & Driving Test Tips: Backup Collisions, deep breath, collisions
QuestionOutside of the office where I work there is 2 hour, diagonal parking. Consequently, in my eight hour, M-F, shift I have to back out of parking spots quite frequently. In my year at this position I have yet to have an accident but I wonder, what is the increased risk of me getting into a collision by moving my car this frequently? Also, do I, more specifically, face increased odds of getting into a collision while in reverse? If so, do you have any statistics? Your help is much appreciated. Thank you!
AnswerI do not know of any statistics that are focused on your situation. In this case having to back up repeatedly may make you complacent or you might be focusing on a work problem when you go out to move your care again. So take a deep breath and concentrate on the driving at that moment remembering to be safe.
