    Why would coasters be used?

    Surely they could either drive the car in under its own power or, if that is not allowed because of exhaust fumes or noise, put it in neutral, release the handbrake and any other brake and push it in on its own wheels.

    I don't think they are allowed to have fuel in the tanks in these sort of places....for obvious reasons !!

    Not allowed because of health and safety muppets :)

    Tyres may damage the floor also. Just needs to pickup a small stone on the tyres tread and it may ruin the floor.

    I would have thought the maneuverability of it would be the bigger issue -v- just pushing it on its own wheels. With casters you can spin it on the spot, in a narrow shopping centre you'd have to do a 20 point turn to get it into place.
