You're parked in a vast parking lot (shopping mall, sports venue, etc.), and you cannot see anyone else in the entire parking lot. But somehow, just seconds before you get to YOUR car, the driver of the car NEXT to your car arrives (usually with a shopping cart to unload or a baby to put in a car seat), thus preventing you from entering YOUR car.
