For some reason, some parking lots have signs that state "Front-In Parking
Only". I have no idea what's up with that.

In the "Residents Only" parking areas at the local train station where I
grew up it was so the cops could verify that you had the residents
sticker on your rear bumper.

It could also be so that the cops could check for expired registrations
easily (in states where the sticker gos on the rear plate).

That would explain it. Thanks, Rich.
