Default Parking Pride Pays Off

Recently, I made the decision to NOT allow some little import to park next to me and it paid off!!!

My friend and I were about to park at the local Hooters and there were only two spots left. The spots were already kinda far from the door so I was weary of not being able to SEE my car. My friend had NEVER been there (really???) so I said oh well and began backing in.

Then the little import comes flying in the parking lot. One spot left...right next to me...aww hell nawl!!! I quickly pull back out of the spot and wave them on in. Something just didn't look right. The little young female got out and walked briskly towards the restaurant with another chick in tow. My spidey sense tingled so I just decided to sit and watch while I waited for a better parking place.

Sure enough the pissed female comes storming out of the business, walks right over to another car in the parking lot, and KEYS THE VEHICLE!!!!! I'm like OMG!!!!! She then goes to make her escape but as she backs out of the parking space, she SIDESWIPES THE CAR NEXT TO HER!!!! That would have been me!!!!

Having Pride in my Parking Space PAID OFF.

Oh yeah...we have a court date set for Monday unless she bonds out. Bad idea to commit Criminal Damage to Property 2nd degree (Felony), etc right in front of a cop. Its weird...i was in shorts and a t-shirt but folks totally ignore my ball cap says CPD...

What is a CPD?
Everyone wears PD hats, and no one pays attention to them anymore since everyone wears them, even the crooks!
I'd prefer a more stealthy mode - off duty -

Been there done that, after 34 years.

BE SAFE!



P.S. glad your parking space instincts paid off for your car!

Great spidey sense y'got there, paid-off big time. You done good, great ending for a change

If only a cop were around when the ferals decide vandalising member Corvettes is a good idea.

she must have seen her boyfriend inside hitting on a Hooters' babe, came out and keyed his car, and took off not giving a damn who she sideswiped.

Interesting. The strip clubs I've been to always have GREAT food.

How ironic.
