At the movies, at least they aren't giving people door dings are making it hard to exit their cars. Running errands yesterday I paid particular attention to people who parked on top of others. A very small sample including someone who did it to me when I went to the pharmacy at Walmart. The half dozen or so I all saw do it were all males and appeared to be retirement age.
I remember it happening a lot when I had a classic Chevelle SS that was in cherry condition so I parked well away from store entrances to avoid door dings. Often I would exit a store only to find someone right on top of me and no other cars within 50 yards. The town had a large senior population. I wonder if it is mostly older drivers doing this.
