Lucky me, I saw the driver backing out and was able to avoid his car. When he reached the point where he could turn his car to drive out of the parking lot, I saw why he wasn't checking to make sure that he wouldn't hit someone (ME!) or another car wouldn't hit him or vice versa.

The idiot was texting and oblivious to his surroundings.
Which is why that even after the traffic light as changed to green for me, I hesitate and look both ways before pulling out into the intersection.
