  1. Causes of Parking Lot Crashes

  2. Backing out Backing out When a driver pulls “head in” into a parking space, they have to back out, creating blind spots that are harder to figure out because other vehicles are parked on either side. This makes it more difficult for a motorist to see if there’s an obstacle or pedestrian at the back.

  3. Too much focus on finding a spot Looking for a vacant spot is difficult in a crowded lot, especially if it’s the holidays. Because of this, drivers tend to focus more on finding a space than on other drivers and pedestrians that might cross their paths.

  4. Congestion Small parking spaces and crowded lots, especially during the holidays, pose greater risk because it means higher car and pedestrian traffic.

  5. No traffic laws  Traffic laws, unfortunately, can’t be fully enforced on all parking areas as many of these paved spaces are considered private properties. Without traffic laws, some drivers can get reckless, increasing their chances of getting into an accident.

  6. Poor parking lot maintenance A poorly maintained parking area is a death trap. Uneven surfaces, a huge pile of snow and ice, and lighting fixtures with dim bulbs can all increase vehicle accident risks.
