Inspired by that other thread about backing in to parking spaces.

    I’ve mostly seen them in parking garages so I assumed it’s for throughput.

    • if you back into a spot, you’re holding up everyone behind you. If an impatient driver is too close you may back into them
    • by fronting in, there’s essentially no wait, no risk of backing over that tailgater. When you want to back out, you wait until traffic is clear rather than block them
