The only point discussed Is, that
:t Is much easier to "head-In"
tnan to "baclt-ln" The most vitul
point Is, Is it eariesr to "bac out"
'.ban ti "back In?" llut let us use
lonimnn practical sense. With our
I resent system, when you are
leady to park you give your "stop
signal," and any cor following you
.seX-iug your signal hue tlmo to stop
or pass around you without ob
structing traffic, and you back In,
on a downwaid slope, which makes

or uuniping ii. to another car.
I will aKree that it is very nuv

much more difficult to "hack out."

These are two valid reasons why
I favor the present system being
