I always see people hit other cars, no damage but still. Old people are the worst, if they reverse they cant turn round as there neck is stiff i guess so just go backwards and hope :confused:
I park next to colleagues. If you go to the same supermarket learn what cars are always there, usually in a corner, and park there as it will most likely be staff

As much as I hate it I started parking over two spaces but only during quiet times. Usually its an end space that is at the furthest point to the entrance.
Always find another car parked next to me though!! :fighting:

+1. I remember reading about one guy getting ticketed and another getting his car keyed. Both had parked in the same way.

I do the same when parking at work. When it's an indoor carpark, I park next to a pillar, as close as I dare. When in an open carpark, next to a kerb, so instead of parking in the middle of my parking space, it's all the way to one side. Leaves a mahoosive gap and means even if some arse in a 4-door saloon parks next to me in the centre of their bay, there's still enough room for them to get out without their door touching my car.
I also tend to go supermarket shopping at night time or very late evening, when there's hardly any cars parked.

I saw a Porsche do this the other day in a shopping car park. Shortly after I heard some scroat say he was going to scratch it for doing so. IMO parking over two spaces just makes the car more apparent that you want to avoid a dent and therefore the jealous scroats out there love this :fighting:

If I have to use a non parent & child space, I always 'accidentally' take up two spaces :evilgrin:
