While your safety and privacy concerns are understandable, your company is free to set its own parking policy. That is so long as it does not run contrary to any exisiting union agreement or employment contract. The fact is that most work arrangements are "at will", which means that a business can set the conditions of employment much as it sees fit (absent legally actionable discrimination). Accordingly you can either accept this policy, complain/not comply but risk termination, or quit.
