   I can see how that's annoying. Compared to all of the other stuff that   
   happens in parking lots, like people backing out of spots crazy fast or   
   parking right up against the side line of a spot, how often does   
   something like that happen?   
      
   I admit I avoid busy parking lots like supermarkets the day before   
   Thanksgiving if at all possible, and I'll gladly walk an extra 100 yards   
   to avoid parking scrums if possible, so I'm not necessarily tuned into   
   what happens in the trenches.
