I recommend that you buy a piece of shit vehicle and park like the biggest jackass next to your neighbors.

If that fails park the same way as the other person.

It would be worse if you had the middle spot. At least you only have one idiot next to you.

Is it a tough angle into the spot or something? I would park close to the line like them to try to resolve. They will still try to squeeze in and make matters worse.

This is why I do avoid middle spots every time I can. It's also extremely helpful to have a pillar in between. Those yellow ones are just on the wrong side.

I've never had the other car's paint samples in the door dings. Just my paint damaged.

That will be being the biggest jackass. Trading an M4 for "a piece of shit vehicle" should be an attractive idea: at least you don't say it is one already.

No. You must avoid crossing the nearest line (to keep the courtesy space they define free for approaching the cars and opening the doors).

Assigned parking? I just call that my detached garage.




I have no idea how my 'neighbors' park. Zero fucks are given.

They probably park close to you because they know you will not give them door dings. Car person to car person they know (hope) you know better.
