Like let’s say your local gym has 30 parking spots and has at least 300 members and staff combined. While you don’t know the percentage of those who drive in, you decide to go during the time of day with the least amount of traffic, however enough people also have that idea that the parking lot remains full regardless. This happens nearly every time you go. Is there a term in statistics for this kind of phenomenon? Question inspired by several real world experiences lol.

Apologies if I’m using incorrect terminology, I never took a statistics class in school/college.
