Tags: This is why we can't have nice things
STARS: 2
My brother’s car has now been hit twice in the parking lot at school. The first time a girl backed into him while he was sitting in the line to leave, leaving a nice cluster of scratches on the right rear section of the bumper. This time he wasn’t even in the car!
This is why people think high schoolers shouldn’t have nice cars, because obviously they just don’t give a fuck. My brother on the other hand does and was kinda pissed.
We did manage to bend the fender back into place, but theres still a crease in the bumper where whatever hit him slid across it. Once the sun hits it and warms the plastic it might fix itself a bit.

I saw a girl who looked to be around 17-18 years old driving her parent’s Jaguar and she did a horrible parking job, scraping up some 20-something year old Accord. She just moved out and parked somewhere else, never left a note or nothing.

That’s a far too common thing people do. Just fess the hell up and leave a note.

That’s why I parked in a massive end spot at the corner of my high school lot.

There’s this little like 15 space auxiliary lot attached to the main lot at his school that 2 people park in. That’s where he’s gonna start parking now.

As much as I hate to admit it, most teens don’t really know what insurance is or what to do if they damage someones car, they just go “oh shit, (insert person here) is going to kill me!” And they run off. Few weeks ago I saw some teen hit someones car and after less than a second of talking to her, I knew she wasn’t going to leave a note, so I took a pic of the plate and waited for the owner of the hit car to give it to him, I may not have been happy at all, but I’m glad I could help that one guy out.

You did the right thing.
Except next time bump into her car with a shitbox and run away :D

Damn that is shitty. It was nice owning my Jeep Wrangler in high school. It was lifted higher than most of the assholes who could have hit it anyway and me and my friends parted near each other as to avoid said assholes.

I was always surprised my M3 never got hit in the lot because I was pretty bad about making an effort to park away from people.

That sucks, I picked up more damage in my college parking lot than I did in high school. It’s a commuter school but you’d think it would getter better not worse.

Ehhh, not so much. Someone decided the hood was too straight and ( from what I’ve guessed ) jumped onto it. Over the course of multiple days. I went from a almost perfect hood to having 4-5 creases on the body lines the hood had.

I almost feel like people care even less the longer they drive. I picked up more door dings on my S10 in store parking lots/work/college than in my high school lot.

Yep. That’s why my parents insist that I take my dingy little V50 (still love it, though) instead of the plush new (to us) XC70 to school. I took it today, though, since we arrived late and left early so I figured it’d be safe if I stick it in that spot that sits between a planter and a crosswalk.

My truck survived high school just fine. College it picked up a bunch of small dents and scratches. I have lots of scratches and dings in every car since

Oh yeah, my car had 1 door ding when I got it in 2015, now it’s got like 7 more just from college. And someone backed into it when my mom had it for the day, cracking the bumper paint, so it’s got this spiderweb crack for like 5 inches, and more chips every time I wash it

I got rear ended back at my HS with my still new to me Mach 1. Just a week after I had spent a day detailing it for a show, the idiot behind me bumped into me because he wasn’t paying attention. It wasn’t devastating damage but it hurt to see. It’s a long story, but he ended up trying to offer me dinner instead, then ran off. His mom found out a week later what he did when the school officer called him. She wasn’t pleased. I was the third or fourth accident that month.

The day I bought my car it received a huge ding in the church parking lot. Of course, being good Christians, they left their name and insurance information... yeah, that didn’t happen.

Not to sound like a cynical asshole but the same folks who do that crap in high school continue to do it as adults. My car has been hit twice (at least) in the parking lot at work.

Yup, in the six months that I parked the TC at my high school lot, they managed to hit it three times! Twice on the front bumper (on the same corner no less) and once being rear ended at the stop sign to the lot. I never got insurance info from any of those incidents. And to top it off, some wanna-be Romeo sat his girlfriend on the hood of MY CAR (I could tell because I could see four hand prints and marks in a layer of dust on the hood) and put a huge crease in the hood. NO RESPECT.
