Is this some form of metaphor?

Backing, for a quick getaway
Kwa MI6 tuliambiwa always try to back into a parking. It is defensive. However, in bonobo countries, naskianga huwezi defense park mbele ya bank.
Safety experts advise drivers to take steps to avoid having to back out of a parking space.
AAA is warning drivers to avoid a common parking lot mistake: pull-forward parking that later requires backing up to exit the space.
Those who oppose backing into spots claim it is inconvenient, especially when trying to load the trunk in between busy parking areas
and it also wastes the time of other drivers when trying to maneuver into the spots…
According to a new survey, 76% of U.S. drivers most frequently park their vehicle by pulling forward into a parking spot, rather than backing in. But this is a riskier practice that leaves pedestrians more vulnerable when the driver later reverses from the spot to move into the traffic lane, AAA said.
Many fleet safety experts advise drivers to rely on pull-through parking. That’s when a driver locates two empty spaces and drives through one space before parking in the other. As a result, the vehicle both enters and exits the parking space without ever backing up. But this time of year, spaces are often scarce and pull-through parking isn’t always available.
That’s when backing into a parking space is the best option – even if the vehicle is equipped with such safety technology as rear cross-traffic alert systems, AAA said.
“Recognizing that American parking habits differ from much of the world, automakers are increasingly adding technology to vehicles that is designed to address rear visibility concerns,” said John Nielsen, AAA’s managing director of automotive engineering and repair. “However, AAA’s testing of these systems reveals significant shortcomings when used in real-world conditions, and Americans should rely more on driving skills than technology.”

In partnership with the Automobile Club of Southern California’s Automotive Research Center, AAA tested rear cross-traffic alert systems designed to alert drivers to traffic passing behind a reversing vehicle. Researchers found that significant system limitations exist when a car is parked between larger vehicles, such as SUVs or minivans.
In this common parking lot scenario, AAA said, the tested systems failed to detect pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcycles and other vehicles at alarming rates:

“AAA’s independent testing showed that rear cross-traffic alert systems failed to work effectively in several test vehicles,” cautioned Megan McKernan, manager of the Automobile Club of Southern California’s Automotive Research Center. “It’s critical that drivers reverse slowly and use this technology as an aid to, not a substitute for, safe driving.”
Previous AAA testing of rear-view camera systems, required on all new vehicles by 2018, revealed significant safety benefits including greater visibility of the rear blind zone by an average of 46%.
However, AAA stressed that no system shows 100% of the space behind a vehicle and that rain, snow or slush can impede camera visibility.
“When it comes to parking, the majority of American drivers are on the naughty list this year,” Nielsen said. “Pulling out of a parking spot, instead of reversing, is an easy way to increase safety and visibility in busy parking lots this holiday season.”
