Why should you park with your head facing out?
When parking in parking lots, drivers often turn the car's head outwards. What are the benefits of this?
Experts advise that the decision to park the car with the front end facing in or out depends on many factors such as the parking space, the terrain, or the driver's ability. However, some of the reasons below explain why drivers should park the car facing out.

Make parking easier
When parking in tight spaces or perpendicular parking, backing up is the easiest way to get the car into the space. Just like parallel parking always requires backing up.
In places like underground parking garages, it can be difficult to even park if your parking spot is sandwiched between two other cars. While just one red light is enough to back into the spot.
Start faster and safer
Have you ever wondered why fire trucks and ambulances always face outwards? This is because when starting off, the vehicle does not have to spend extra time reversing, it just needs to go straight or turn in the direction it needs to go.
At the same time, if the car is turned outward, when it is necessary to leave the parking position, the driver will easily observe the surrounding obstacles, thereby avoiding bad situations that cause scratches to the car. On the contrary, the car is turned inward when reversing, there will be a very large blind spot because of the surrounding parked cars or nearby objects that obscure it, making it easy to collide.
Less traffic obstruction
Most cars today are designed with the front of the car longer than the rear, especially SUVs or MPVs. If the car is parked with the front facing in and the rear facing out, these cars will take up a lot of space, making the space narrow and obstructing the view of other vehicles.
Parking cars in the same order with the front of the car facing out will help vehicles moving or entering and exiting the parking spot have the best viewing angle.
Easier to rescue and jump start the battery
In some bad cases, the car runs out of power and needs to rely on the help of the battery from another car. If the car is turned inward, it will be difficult to connect the wires for the two cars, but when the car is turned outward, the owner can easily connect the power from the other car to his car.
More seriously, if the car breaks down and needs to be towed away for repairs, it will be much easier to turn the car around. Usually, car models are designed with a tow hook placed in the front for "emergency" when it has an accident.
Because the tow hook is located at the front of the car, turning the car inward will make it difficult for the tow truck to access. Therefore, when the driver turns the car outward, it will be easier when having an accident and cannot move, especially in the basement.
Easier to see the vehicle
Most people have the habit of leaving things in the car. When turning the car out, we can easily observe through the front window to see if anyone is sneaking into the car to steal things, and the security guard can also check more easily. But if the car is turned in, it is very difficult to observe.
Or in some cases where adults "forget" children in the car, if the car is turned outward, it will be easier to detect than if the car is turned inward.
Or a fairly common case is when another vehicle moving nearby accidentally collides and damages your car. If your car has a dash cam installed, it will definitely record the incident to find the culprit. On the contrary, even if the car has a camera and turns the car inside, you still cannot track it.
