[QUOTE="Dizzee, post: 497624, member: 12313"] For the last week or so I have been working on eliminating as many backs as I can. One side effect of this is, I find myself making maneuvers that I ordinarily wouldn't attempt. One example is a stop of mine on a dead-end street. It has a tiny parking lot (always empty) at the end of it that I used to pull into, then back about 5', and then pull out. Now I u-turn in the lot, but, it's very tight. There's a light pole and a fence that are only inches away from the bumper while turning around. There's no doubt in my mind, that backing at this stop, and several others on my route, is safer than turning around. [/QUOTE]
