In these places there is not much in the way of traffic control, so drivers must use common sense and a bunch of look out for the other guy stuff. We get behind time wise, late for work, late for senool, late for dinner or whatever, and just plain get in too big of a hurry to see what might be in front of or behind us. What about the sun early in the morning or late in the afternoon? Man can it be bright! Now if you ding your fender and or someone elses, that is bad on insurance, costs money to fix, and makes you even later. It probably causes the other person a little heartburn also. Not a good situation, but what if the object you hit isnt a car but a pedestrian? People walk; around parking lots; small childrenjump out of vehicles and run wherever, most of the time this is going on behind a vehicle that may block your view. The Police Department asks all drivers to take a little extra time and' make sure there is not something or someone in or about to beinthespaceyou are going to drive into.
