    safety rin yata concern... you exhaust mo hindi makukulong masyado, unlike kung facing the wall ka, makaka circulate sa driveway yung usok...

    diba may namatay dahil nag stay sila sa kotse, then they fall a sleep and their car is not facing the wall when parked. normally sa hindi ventilated na parking may sign na ganyan.

    what do you think?

    most of the time, kahit may sign, paatras ako mag-park. easier kasi for me when it's time to go home.

    It's really to prevent the walls from becoming dirty. Sa shell j vargas ganyan din, pero open air naman yun e.

    nope. lalo na pagmahirap lumabas. abala din sa mga dumadaan, ilang atras-abante muna before you can go talaga. aside sa di naman ako nagbababad once i turned-on the engine, gas pati gamit ko kaya minimal lang yung black particle na didikit sa wall..

    +1. Para paglabas eh diretso na kaagad. IMO, mas maganda at maayos ang park pag patalikod lalo na kung ang driveway parking ay masikip.

    i usually park backward unless there's a sign 'facing a wall'. i find easy to maneuver parking backward.

    no matter what style we park, we're still bound to do the reverse/forward motion to manouver anyways. so kung pagdating mo -patusok ang pasok mo sa parking, sa pag uwi mo nman -aatras ka rin para makalabas or vice versa.

    i would say that it sometimes depend when it matters para sayo. sa case ko na usually nagmamadali sa ofc, pagdating ko sa parking ng bldg namin -patusok ako para baba na agad at di ako ma-late. by that time na uwian ko na, w/c usually by that time e hndi na gano hectic sa parking area, paatras nako which i can afford to take my own sweet time kasi di nako nagmamadali.

    Nope. I like being able to get my vehicle out of where its parked faster. Besides, mall operators charge patrons for parking, as well as mall tenants for common usage area fees so they have enough to keep on cleaning or repainting these walls if necessary. Believe me, I've worked for a mall operator and it easily clears over Php 4-5 Million net on parking fees alone.

    i prefer to park not facing the wall. mapapapark lang ako ng facing the wall pag hindi kaya ng paatras. depende pa rin sa situation ng parking area

    Yup, it really depends on the situation and how much space there is in the parking lot.

    not if i'm not instructed to. but our office' parking lot requires parking facing the wall so i park facing the wall... i also prefer backward parking because it's a lot easier... on the other hand there's nothing wrong parking facing the wall especially if there's a sign which specifically says so... natuto ka nga mag drive eh, simpleng instuction lang di ka makasunod...

    what do you think?
    Actually, pag may leak yung exhaust ng kotse, papasok yung Carbon Dioxide sa kotse, kaya may namamatay. CO pa naman is an odorless gas.

    You can park in an open field, recirculate ON, pag walang leak yung exhaust, nothing will happen.

    The most recent incident I've heard of ay dun sa Megamall, involving the brother and father of a well-known local female singer (forgot the name). Natulog sila sa kotse, with the aircon on. Apparently, may leak yung exhaust, so namatay yung brother and the father was unconscious. Buti na lang naagapan.

    I think it was Carol Banawa...yung brod ang namatay and yung father is na-hospitalized with complications.

    I do follow rules naman basta may sign to face the wall. Pero di hamak nga mas madali mag-park the other way around para mas madali din umalis kasi kita mo agad kung my oncoming vehicles on your way out...

    I do this 90% of the time.

    10% kung masikip ang parking, park facing the 'opposite wall'

    Mali pala yung thread na ni-link ko. Eto pala ang mas bago: http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26900

    Sinusunod ko yung "park facing the wall" kung may nakasulat. I suppose they have their reasons why they want it that way, but since I am using their parking facility, not mine, I will just follow what they want.

    ako depende sa location ng parking slot. kung maluwag naman and easier to get out na paharap ang parada, that's what i do ;)

Do you really park "facing the wall"
