I bet you do. (I mean it's not like we don't ALL think that ... and I mean think that we're better than average, not that you are - lol)Of course. I also like to think I'm a better driver then most.
But you'll get a better view of the space previewing it out of the side window before parking butt first then looking over the hood when pulling in forwards.
Here's where your case falls down though - sure you get to do a quick drive by, although to follow the logic of safety-in-a-parking-lot, you should really be looking forward and not over your shoulder at a prospective parking space (maybe THAT'S why people drive into other people who are backing out of the slot!), but then you just assume the spot stays that way as you take the time to reverse into it
If instead you drive forwards into the spot, you can check it for the full duration of the maneuver
