Agreed. I hate people that suck at parking... especially those that are inconsiderate parkers. The people I mean are the types that take up just enough space to make the space next to them non-accessible and the people who park just crooked enough to not be cited but to screw everyone else over who needs to park in the spaces next to them. So far I've been lucky and people haven't jacked my car yet in the spaces I've parked.

THAT is exactly the reason I will take the few extra minutes to park in the farthest, most remote, lonely, END SPACE in the entire parking lot, and park as close to the curb as possible....and if I dont feel comfortable about the spots that are available....I will drive around till I find one I am ok with. The only exception would be if I were waiting for someone and was standing by my car the whole time, then I will park in a "close" spot. Other than that, its all about the boondocks for me.

i remember sitting in my car and some suv felt their car could and would fit in the compact parking space to the right of me. needless to say they did get it in, but with 1 foot clearance on the drivers side. the ars who was driving (was rather large) not only rammed his door into my car but proceeded to squeeze himself through both our cars to get out.
all i ask for is some consideration...that's all.
