Park by feel drivers, or, who not to park the 914 next to Options

After reading a recent thread about various peoples women folk taking out garage doors, I took pictures of how this guy I work with parks.

You can see in the first picture how far I park from his usual spot.

I was in New Jersey for business a few weeks ago (Jersey City). We went to dinner at the Chart House and took a route through Hoboken/Weehawkin. I noticed many cars (like 20%) that had this strange mat (or some piece of old carpet) hanging over the rear bumper. Then I realised that 90% of the cars that were parked on the street without this mat had thier bumpers beat to sh!t. Everything from ratty older cars to newer high end stuff. It was like no one cared - if they saw a space even close to the size of their car, they would simply push their way in. These towns need to have the days of the giant chrome bumpers reinstated.

infact, I just googled it. Here is one of the companies that makes them:

Good for them - but what does it say about folks when you can make a business out of something that is simply the destruction of private property? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)
