That "Reversing" experience!

A few days back, I had to go to meet someone at a place. I had to go and park my vehicle at a shopping complex's basement. What happened was that there were no signages at some places. I entered a narrow side Lane, thinking it would lead to entrance. However, there were 6 to 7 cars coming from the opposite side. The lane being narrow, I had no option but to reverse at least 300 M. This is something I am much more cautious and do not like so much reversing. I heaved a sigh of relief when done. Well God has his own way of making us do things and giving us lessons!

That reminds me of an experience my niece went through in the US. She took a one way street and had to travel miles to get back

@allknowing I have seen people backing up cars or buses on hilly stretches. That would be way much tougher !

Wow, that's a long way to have to reverse. You would have thought there would be a 'no entrance' sign there.

I don't like going places new where I don't know the area very well and the signs are not properly in place. Good thing you were able to back out

@cintol it was tough but sometimes we have to be prepared for such situations.

Signages are so important. They should have put it there.

@Janet357 there were signages nearby but no sign indicating one way on that Lane.
