The Attack Backing Program is designed to minimize backing. When parking, it is recommended you use pull through parking when available, so you can drive forward into and out of the parking space. The next best option is to drive straight into a parking spot instead of backing into it in order to minimize the amount of backing you need to do.

If pull through parking isn't available, you should back into a parking spot as you have better visibility as opposed to when you back out of a parking spot.
