Old people walking behind my car in the parking lot

I am getting pretty tired of them yelling at me for scaring them. They sneak behind my car while I'm trying to pull out, then scream when I start backing up into them. They take forever to get out of the way and honking gets them more angry. Some bang my trunk with their fists. Is it normal for old people to be obstacles in the parking lot?

    Where do you live where there are so many elderly people that this is a regular occurrence for you?

    • It's not so much where as when. I do my grocery shopping early in the morning. That's when the elderly do all their shopping in my area.

        How are you at backing into parking spaces? Maybe it's worth trying that out so when you leave the spot you're already facing forward

        • The spaces are diagonal and can't be backed into easily.

            Get a cattle guard for your back bumper and just don't worry about looking behind you when you back up
