Why do people speed through parking lots???

Question

I get so annoyed with people who speed through parking lots. I lived in Florida for a few years and people there were notorious for speeding through parking lots. Its almost like they are trying to run someone over. I always slow down to allow people to walk across the parking lot. I think its rude not to. I would rather slow down than to risk running someone over. Why do people think they have to drive like a maniac through a parking lot?

Answer 1

That's a good question, that even I would love to know the answer to. I recently got my permit, and I HATE when people are rushing around in parking lots... it makes me feel so rushed. It's really stupid. Parking lots honestly, are pretty unsafe, considering all of the vehicles and people, so when other cars speed, it just makes it ten times worse.

Answer 2

It makes them feel bad ***.

Answer 3

You're right.

Speeding through parking lots can cause major problems such as vehicle accidents and hit pedestrians.

Also, when in parking lots, people tend not to follow the directional arrows showing the proper way to drive through a parking lot.  This is most irritating to me.

Answer 4

Because they're stupid.

Answer 5

Because the are anal orifices. I drive slow only because I don't know what is aroun the corner. Most of the people are young and dumb and I am sure I was one at one time. But not anymore. If you can, get away from the malls and start shopping on line. lol....it's safer. LOL LOL LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

Hey, you can save a very valuable 5 seconds by going 60 through a parking lot rather than 10.

Answer 7

There is no posted speed limit in many parking lots, therefore, the idiots don't know what speed to go and are in a panic from having to guess when they don't have the brains to guess correctly! They are in such a state of panic that they don't stop at posted stop signs in parking areas either! GRRRR!

Answer 8

because theyre morons.  i hate that too!
