I've never been called 'meek' before! But then I think I'm looking at the problem differently. I don't consider the walking time wasted, I don't mind the walk. I want to get the car parked as quickly as possible, not spend the least amount of time between entering the lot and getting to my destination. In fact, I will often park further away even when I can directly see that close up spots are free.
- nils-m-holm 7y agoI would even consider the short walk to be a bonus! Also, you do not have to squeeze your car into a narrow slot, but can choose a spot with another free slot to your driver side -- or both sides, if you have a passenger!
- jshawl 7y agoSame! For two reasons: 1) no need to worry about someone pulling out in front of me or pedestrians or carts hitting my car 2) I’m at a desk all day. A couple minutes walk every time I park adds up to count as exercise
- amelius 7y agoWalking can be nice, but in an indoor parking garage not so much, with all those exhaust fumes and cars driving by without a clear sidewalk.
- technothrasher 7y agoAh, yes, well for most indoor parking garages my usual strategy is to immediately head for the top (or bottom) floor. Almost nobody parks there unless they have to, so there's often lots of open spaces and much less traffic. If there aren't and good spots on the last level, then there likely aren't any good spaces anywhere in the garage anyway.
