So there have been a few blogs about the driving habits of many about town, but this is a blog about parking lot etiquette. I don't remember ever learning about the proper way to drive in a parking lot, but it has always seemed common sense worked well enough. Apparently, this doesn't work for everyone. That or they just don't care. Over the last month I have almost been in about 5 accidents in parking lots. Thank God I'm a defensive driver! Maybe it's just me...rules that I've applied just to myself all these years. So I'll ask you what you do? SaveMart parking lot has been the worst for me with this "rule". 1.) So If pulling out onto one of the two main strips through the parking lot do you yield to those coming into the parking lot? I always have. Also for example, If pulling out of the gas station portion of Albertson's do you yield for those driving through to get back on to Tucker.? Three times in the last month I've had to slam on my brakes while someone flies out of an aisle without even braking for me. 2.) If pulling out do you yield for those driving down the aisle? I know this usually depends on if the person has actually pulled out of the parking space, etc., but if someone is already half way pulled out do you stop??  I do. Well I guess the person that nearly slammed into me didn't know this rule. Near accident #4. Then last night took the cake!  I was in the Albertson's parking lot. Pulled in through the main strip off of Tucker. Stopped to check for pedestrians before turning left to head to McDonald's. Well while I was doing this a car came flying up behind me and without stopping and passed me on the left. I was livid! If I hadn't of paused I would have been side swiped by this person. They also proceeded to go to MD and parked in the parking lot. I tell you it took everything in me not to get out and chew this person out.  I can't say I wasn't surprised when some teeny bopper got out of the car talking on her cell phone. Grr....I'm still irritated.  Anyway, I'll end my rant, but I ask you, Do you remember any rules pertaining to parking lots? Do you follow any specific rules when driving in parking lots or am I alone on this? Somehow I don't think I am although I'm beginning to have my doubts.
