My biggest pet peeve. When someone backs into your front bumper and then drives off, leaving me to come out to my car after class and see what has happened and the campus police not finding shit on their cameras.

Easy! Report it to the authorities! Those a-holes think they're so macho and own the world.

Its called double parking and is a ticketable offense, id have to look up the law by state, but take a nice print out of the statue and code, and any near by officer would most likely be happy to ticket the dipshits who double park like this.

whilw it's technically double parking, it's mostly just being a jackass.

The only time I ever see parking monitors care about double parking is when you park in a lane next to a row of parked cars.

Curb -> parked car in parking spot -> another car parked "in the road"

Well what about the a-holes who park and take 2 spots in the lot. I've seen it twice in the last couple of days. One at a busy mall where someone parked their brand new escalade in two spots about 3 spots from the entrance to the building and another not as greivous, but still taking 2 spots.

I wanted to key, spit on, poor my soda on, kick, let the air out of the tires of these vehicles, but my wife kept me in check so I just fumed.

How much does everyone hate this and what if anything do you do about it?

I used to squeeze my beater into one of the spaces if I could so they couldn't get their door open. Did that make me like the minivan woman? I don't personally don't think so because in that case the car was legally parked.

discuss...........
You need to get a life if something like that makes you so angry that you would vandalize someone else's property. It's annoying, but it shouldn't bother you for more than 1 s.
