I’d like to guess that it isn’t a well-thought decision to park closer. It’s just basic instinct of choosing a convenient place. While in reality that causes crowdedness and might cost more time, the drivers aren’t doing a rational computation in their head about optimization. If you ask them the question, “Is that few steps so important to you?”, they will answer no and park a bit further.
