 This is the biggest problem I've had with my Z, combined with a large vehicle (like a pickup truck, SUV, or minivan) parked right next to me that makes it impossible to see if there's anyone coming up the lane you're about to back into. I just backup very slowly and watch like a hawk. There's nothing much else you can do.
