I am looking for statistics to support my belief that it is safer to back into a parking space versus nosing in.
Where do I get motor vehicle safety statistics?
contact local highway patrol office or go there they will have or can get them
Reply:Good luck on that one. I don't know of anyplace that has parking safety statistics. You may get lucky though:

Reply:I know I may only have 5 years experience as a professional ticket and accident free truck driver but the thing I hear over and over again is only back up when it is necessary. Trucking companies spend more money on accidents going backwards than forwards. Now for automobiles I am going to assume that number is close to the same. Backing into a parking stall with cars on both sides is more riskier than pulling in forwards and backing out into a open space. It is unnecessary and pointless unless you are robbing a bank.
