Many people believe they don’t need to be as alert to their driving in parking lots because of slow speeds. The truth is exactly the opposite. Drivers are more preoccupied and parking lot roads are more congested. The result is that crashes are more likely to happen in parking lots than on highways or local roads.
No matter how large or small your campus or how many levels or parking lots you have, the risks to motorists and pedestrians are real.
