    Good stuff hope she's been caught

    on a slightly different theme but still annoying.

    I want to get some stickers that i can put on peoples cars...

    It's ok I bought my tin opener with me

    for all those people that park so close to you, a few times I've had to climb in the passenger side because unless i am size 0 i wouldn't be able to open the drivers door.
    Life is about give and take, if you can't give why should you take?

    I hope thats the end of the matter, but want to add my thoughts.

    I work in different supermarkets all day every day and my car has been hit by inconsiderate drivers/passangers more times than I can remember (I always eat lunch in car in car parks), BUT I sometimes just glare at them, and sometimes I shout, be more careful, or words to that effect.

    It does make me angry, because there is very little excuse for doing it, BUT again, that lady was way over the top.

    What could have been a good idea is a picture with the car door opened (and firmly held) around an inch or two away from their car, taken from the front. As both cars have not moved, it should be obvious from such a picture where your door would cause a dent or scratch. It would also be a good way of pointing out to her where exactly your door would have contacted her door.
