I would urge caution when pulling through if there are cars on either side and you cannot see past them. All too often people will whip into free spaces not expecting someone to be “pulling through”. It also means you have to ride over 2 spaces worth of crap on the road. Can’t say this is something I do too often but then I usually look for corner spaces off to the side. The little nooks and crannies that cars cannot get into.
EDIT: Should add that I live in a downtown environment where most parking lots are underground. The crap from the cars does not get washed away by the weather so it gets really bad. These lots are usually pretty tight and there are usually small spaces by the concrete pillars. Actually there are usually dedicated bike parking areas
