I don't feel bad about making the guy behind me wait for 10 seconds, and he didn't seem too concerned about it either.

After the game, there were lines of cars stacked up all trying to get out of the single exit gate (and into traffic). When there was an opening, I just pulled right out and got into line. All the people who had pulled in nose-first held up the line for 20-30 seconds or more backing out into traffic and doing a 8-point shuffle because there wasn't enough room. Oh, and one of them put a nice dent in the car next to them when they turned their wheel too early trying to maneuver out backwards.

But please go on about how backing in is never appropriate.

Good post.
