If I go to a mall or large parking area, I pull forward through two spots, to a spot I can drive straight out of. If I go to a friends house, I park in the street instead of having to back out of a driveway- I'm so used to it now, I don't even think about it, and do it automatically.

I agree with HummerJim's comments. I do the same. You need to understand the first thing you hit will be with your spare tire so make sure you understand how far it is behind the window.
