Now if someone did that shit to my vehicle, there is not a hole deep enough I won't find them. When I bought my current truck I had it for maybe 3 days when some motherfucker keyed it to metal from one end to the other on the passenger side. It took going through video footage from 8 businesses until I found them. Some punk on parole that just did it for fun. I tracked them down and made sure they got violated back to prison. You never mess with peoples cars, ever.

My man, I have NO issue with someone with a handicap using two spaces. Being somewhat handicapped myself, I can relate.

The only problem I see is someone who doesn't REALIZE that you need the space for your wheelchair. But in spirit, I am with you.

Bahahahaha... Don't be a jackass and double park your car! Faith in humanity = restored.

It depends on the car. None of the cars in the video were worthy. The chick in the 86 knew she was wrong,the last time I seen a car deliberately double parked like that was a Lamborghini Murcielago outside of Safeway.

Best post of thread.. Instead of turning into "is double parking bad?" (it is). More attention should be paid as to how staged the video is..

I didn't even doublepark my Elise outside of Aldi. Granted, Elise is a little narrower than the Murci.

The description says what type of mic was used to capture audio from a distance.

And then people do this:

So in my book this really pisses me off.

I do one of 3 things:

1. Other car did not ding my door and I can still get in my car easily then I do nothing.
2. Other car did not ding my door and I cant get in my car without my door hitting theirs then if they get a ding then so be it.
3. Other car dings my door their car gets the door caved in and the air let out of the two drivers side tires.

You need to start keeping a tire valve tool in your glovebox. Don't ask how I know how satisfying they can be.

My ex-wife has a sister with a screw loose.
They went out clubbing one night many years ago. At their club of choice some d-bag had parked his corvette across a couple of spots. There were no other spots. They were in the sister's company station wagon, which she backed into the corvette... twice.
I could never do that, but I understand the urge.

The problem is that you could be pissed at the wrong driver. If you look carefully, the car to the Honda's right is shifted over. It could have been some clueless soccer mom parking her minivan six cars down who started the shift so everyone else had to park to the side.

Too true for situations 1 and 2 in that situation the only proper thing to do is find the original offender vehicle and let the air out of the tires.
For situation 3 damage has been done to my car which means regardless of situation the car that did the damage is gonna pay.

No joke I used to carry around these and leave them on @ssholes windows:

I had a box of 100 business cards made out of that and used them until they were gone. I never went back and had more made.
