Default Why Corvette Owners Park Far Away From Everyone!
I saw this video and thought I would share it with you guys. This is why I try and park away from everyone else.

I've had someone hit a C5 I had in a parking lot. She did stay and her insurance covered it.

Oh my god😳😳😳!!! She hit that car what 3 times trying to back out. She definitely doesn’t need to have a drivers license, and then just took off.

Wow, anyone who can't back a small car like that our of a parking space with that much room without hitting one of the vehicles parked next to them, especially 3 times, should NEVER be allowed to drive period!

Park out in the boonies, but whatever you do, NEVER take up two parking spaces.

Makes no difference. Seems like about half the time we park out in the north 40 all by ourselves, somebody else has to park right next to us. Not the space over, RIGHT NEXT TO US.

YIKES! That's my primary route to from home!

When turning left off happy Valley onto Alma School, many drivers take that stretch of road as a place to haul a$$. But, this is ridiculous!

YouTube video says the video was taken at the Morris Plains, Greystone Psychiatric Hospital. I'm guessing this lady was a resident patient there.
