Theoretical run over question......

[Jasandjules]

Let's say you are in a supermarket car park and reversing into a space, when someone runs behind the car into the space....

How many points to you get on the Deathrace 2000 scoring system.......

Is this someone a child, a traffic warden or a Speed camera operator?

Just an adult. A lady who I presume as she owned an Audi felt she was entitled to the entire car park as well

[FiF]

Was this person attempting to reserve the space and attempting to prevent you reversing into said space?

If so, one might have been tempted to give a pre MOT clear out of the diesel particulates.

Nope, she got out of the car about 3 spaces over and just walked behind the car to get to the shop..... Of course she had to squeeze because I was busy reversing into it at the time.....

Did she get squished ? Sounds like either she was looking for a Darwin Award or looking for compensation

I got a fat lady doing this reversing in to a spot at a co-op. Despite her size she managed to stay in my blind spot, the first I knew was a dull thud as my c-pillar got her.

She didn't say a word when I got out, knew she'd fked up by entering the kill zone.

Only 1 point on the Deathrace scoring imo, due to the low speeds involved, I'd double it to 2 points if you manage to roll over them with 1 axle, and 5 points for both axles.

No as fortunately I do several checks when reversing and saw her. But it was close given I was 50% in the space and she actually squeezed between the moving car and the parked one. I seriously could not believe it.
