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 theres
an obstacle or pedestrian at the back.

Too much focus on finding a spot
Looking for a vacant spot is difficult in a
crowded lot, especially if its 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.

Congestion
Small parking spaces and crowded lots, especially
during the holidays, pose greater risk because it
means higher car and pedestrian traffic.
6
No traffic laws
 Traffic laws, unfortunately, cant 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.

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.
