I once heard “to keep your tailgate from being stolen” but that seems like it’d be a rare case.

    When you are approaching a parking spot you’re already looking everywhere and can find obstacles as you back in. If you drive into a parking spot backing out may have issues because you may not have seen obstacles that would be in the way. We are not always as observant approaching our vehicle as we are when we have already been driving it. Plus, it’s a whole lot easier to get back out of the parking spot if you can just drive away.

      Simply having to sit and watch as morons poorly attempt to back in suggests they don’t have a good grasp of their surroundings.
