Nevermind the fact I drive the car like 5 times a year.
I’ll make sure never to park at the end of a T intersection occifer

its so u can identify the direction of travel of said vehicle in front of u. amber reflectors up front and red reflectors out back will give u an idea of which direction the said vehicle is pointing and potentially traveling. of course now a days with DRL being standard on every car produced post 199X, it should be easily distinguishable which way the vehicle is traveling. but dont forget, these laws/rules were made before DRL so someone driving with no lights on, these reflectors could save a potential accident.
