LOLOLOL! I was taught at an early age not to stand behind a vehicle when its backing up..That little trick will probably be the secret to my old age Do not feel to bad though...At Christmas time i had a 70ish year old lady in a reindeer sweater flip me off in the target parking lot.

Back up beepers cameras ,sorry a waste of time and money. Even with both on your van a brain dead person will still do stupid things Dive defensively.Keep your mirrors properly adjusted.Try not to pull onto parking spots.When backing into a spot pick one with empty cars on both sides. Having to share the road with not only stupid people but distracted people,takes some of the fun out of driving.

Yeah, don't it make ya shake your head to see a BMW circle the lot a dozen times so the young driver in the jogging outfit can park a little closer to the door. | | | Re: This happened last evening. | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 4,043 pooh-bah | pooh-bah Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 4,043 | I always do a brake torque and get the tires smoking pretty good in revers before backing out of the parking space. People have actually tun out of the store to get their car out of my way!
Some pig innards and blood on the back bumper is a great pedestrian deterrent as well.
