Riding a motorcycle has also done wonders for my awareness in parking lots. I look for reverse lights, heads in drivers' seats, any kind of movement. My number one rule when around vehicles (after safety) is that no one ever has to wait because of me. I get out of people's way, either on foot or by making my turn as soon as I can. My wife just doesn't know or care that others don't see her or might be waiting for her to make her move.
OMG...you sound like me (and your wife sounds like my girlfriend). She is clueless when driving, at ATM machines, bad neighborhoods, etc.

(And I always sit with my back to the wall @ bars/restaurants!)
