Best Places to Park at the Mall,
According to Science.
Two scientists from the
Santa Fe Institute and Boston
University published their findings
in the 'Journal of Statistical Mechanics.'.
Three parking strategies
were tested in their research. .
The "meek strategy" is used by
drivers who take the first open
parking spot they see, regardless of
how far away it is from the entrance.
The "prudent strategy" is used by
drivers who take the best spot between
the first open spot they see and
the first parked car that they see.
The "optimistic strategy" is used
by drivers who wait for a parking
spot to open up that is as close
as possible to the entrance.
According to the research and experiments,
the "prudent strategy" works the best.
You want to go to the first place there’s an open spot and park somewhere in that first open area, Sidney Redner, Study Author, via Mental Floss
