    It's amazing the number of people who just open their doors without looking. In my experience it's the passengers who are worse than drivers. Maybe that's because the driver has had to judge the distance to get into the space.

    Another pet peeve regarding parking are those that drive straight in but have to reverse out. I find it easier the reverse in then be able to drive straight out as visibility is greater.

    I drive into a car park space when I'm shopping as I want my boot to be facing out. Makes it easier for putting shopping into the boot. Those 2 lots of dents that cost £420 were caused by drivers pushing their trolleys down tight spaces. I know as one time I lined up a trolley against my car and the dents were at the same height as trolley.

    Open their car door in to your car?

    If I can get out of my car without touching your car why can you not get back in? So disrespectful!

    because they are bigger?
    beacuse they have less mobility?
    because you are an !!!! & park too close?

    This gets my goat!! (no idea what that phrase means).

    Once when I was in a car park waiting for the missus to do whatever missus' do in shops, some absolute scrote did an almighty whack of my rear door with her 37yr old Suzuki P.O.S. Naturally got out to politely confront and all I got was a load of denial and abuse. When I countered it, never raising to her level and certainly not even remotely aggressive, she called the police on me! Police never arrived of course.

    Woman refused to talk to me, refused even to acknowledge me, wouldn't look me in the eye and just drove off.

    I HATE PEOPLE LIKE THIS AND WANT THEM TO DIE. Ok bit extreme.
