I park under the covered parking at my apartment, reaaaaaaallly close to the beam. That way, if my neighbor parks crooked in the spot next to mine--per the usual--I'm safe from door dings.

And, to the member who posted about parking next to a curb away from home. I do that too, as far away from other cars as possible.

That, and parking next to newer luxury cars when there are no open spaces reduces possibility of door dings... Unless they just don't care about their car!

stupid question: if someone dings your car, what should you do about it? like say the person parked next to you dinged your car...should you wait for them to come out and get thier insurance? what if they never come out (working there or something)? what do you do then?

or a better instance - you park your car at an amusement park, you get out of the park and the jerk next to you dinged your car...what do you do about it?

i would call the cops, it's easy to tell if thet dent is made by the car next to you or not.
anyway, a dent costs $$ to fix. just call the cop see what they can do for u.

Yup that too. Reason I park in a the park is 'cause there's no place to park at work or when I get home. Lots of parking spaces in the parks where I live.

at my apt: underground garage and go as close to the beam next to me as humanly possible so the highlander and it's female driver next to me doesnt hit me =x

at work: lowest level of 3 level garage if possible. if no spaces outside the garage (booooo sun) away from every other car.

anywhere else: back of parking lots and/or curb park

I park it in my driveway next to my house. When I'm parking in a lot somewhere, I try to park next to an Audi, BMW or other car that is more $$$ than mine. That way, maybe any potential theives will go to the more expensive one.
