Why are People so inconsiderate when it comes to other's cars?

I park as far away as possible...good exercise I suppose. If I can't park far away I will take a spot on the end and park way over the line so the person next to me can't possibly hit my car. These damn SUVs don't make people better parkers either...they should start painting the lines farther apart. I would take up two spots but then people get even more inconsiderate and force their way into the half spot or worse, they key your car.

the drawback to that is that it makes it easier for thieves to make away with it....
 
My car was keyed twice, rear ended and the left side of the rear bumper just 3 weeks after buying the car was scuffed like madness. All this in a 3 month period. the car is only 7 months old now and G-d knows what else might come up.

People are ******* nuts, no respect for nothing. And have no ******* logic when it comes to driving
 
Well, last year, I had my car parked in a parking lot for hockey, the Gretzky Center in Brantford...I go out after my game, hear my alarm going off, ok, wutever, someone rubbed it with hockey equipment..s*** happens. Get out there, and there is a nice ding, through the paint, on the front right quater panel..jeez..look next to me..a mustang, with titanium paint on the front....I talk to the guy, he denies everything(he was still in his car), I call the cops..for some reason they got there really fast, the guy was still waiting. They talk to me, and since while I called he got the paint off his car, they say there is no way to prove anything..so I leave, acting really nice, and all "Oh, wutever, it's just a car, hope you have fun during your game, have a nice day coppers" etc...no-one wrote my plate number down...I go back, and write on his hood, with my keys"Thanks for the dent asshole" making sure to etch it nice and deep, I then give a good hoof to his door, denting it. Nuff said.I over-reacted here, and still kinda feel bad about it, but i mean, I got ****** over by him AND the cops, so I decided vigilante justice would do. However, usually I am good about this stuff. Once, when I was in a real hurry(it was an emergency), and I parked in the emerg parking in the hospital...while getting out, my door bumped the Chrysler next to me...I could see any damage, even with rubbing the paint a bit, just to make sure it wasn't hidden by the dirt...I couldn't see anything. But I decided I'd play it safe, left a note, including my Licence number, and Phone number and Name...person called me. They started off sounding like I just murdered their car, they where all "You bumped my car right? yeah, well I was looking at the door....and I couldn't see anything, and neither could anyone else. Thanks for your honesty non the less, you are a good person". I got thanked for being honest about it, but still, thats the only time I've ever bumped a person. I've had friends do it, and I make them leave a note.It's just not right. I've left notes when I've witnessed it too...like, some people don't even realize they've bumped a person, thats inocent..then you get the people who jam their door open, look at the dent/scratch, and start the car and drive away, those are the ones I make sure to leave a note about.
 
It seems like people never have heard of door edge guards. I got clear ones for all four doors for about $6 and they look sweet at hell too.
