In our case, I use the backup camera on our Expedition. The wide angle lenses on those cameras are great for letting one see back and off to the side. They give an almost 180 degree view behind me.

Cherry Street in Tulsa takes the diagonal parking to weirdness by requiring you to back into the spaces.
Get the eff out and look!
Welcome to OSA
get out and look at what? Stand there until you see a big enough break and jump in and toss it in reverse and make a break for it - Well alrighty then, guess me and my dad and grandfathers have all done it wrong. It's really not a big deal, I'll get out there far enough and they'll stop
. I was just curious of where folks have landed in today's world is all.
I was recently in Baltimore and experienced this as well. Everyone had to back in.
Do they paint the stripes angling the other way?
Just how big of bumper do you have?
yes. It's called reverse angled parking and is becoming more common as it's thought to be safer for traffic and pedestrians.
Pull past the spot, reverse in. Then when you go to leave you should be able to see the oncoming cars (and any people) as you pull forward into traffic.
It's different so it freaks some people out.
Seattle has this as well, but it's rare
