Nissan 370Z Forum  

I come back to this...

I see people just leave carts in the middle of parking lots all the time with nothing preventing them from rolling off on their own for one reason or another.

People are inconsiderate.

Too far to go to return it? How hard is it to hook the front wheels over a curb off to the side or something so it wont just roll away with a breeze or take up a whole parking space.

Glad it was only a minor scuff. It'll probably buff right out.

I agree with all the posts, people are so inconsiderate of others property, but at the same time these haters want what you have but wouldn't take care of it if they had it. Just glad i can use our DD whenever i need to go somewhere around the city, and my wife reminds me never to park my 370Z (not that i would, we respect our possessions , and she appreciates the hard work i put into detailing our cars) unless i'm pumping gas into her (Vanity).

And my gf wonders why we always take her Kia when we have to park around the general public.

So in Europe carts are all buckled together. When you get a cart you have to insert the equivalent of a dollar or two (in coins) to unbuckle it from the others and then hell yeah you see people returning it!! It kinda sucks that here you can just leave it anywhere.

Parking uphill, away from other cars, and ideally next to a curb is what I always look for

I hate parking in public lots here in LA. Nothing but a bunch of inconsiderate douches that ding your car.

Maybe I should just cover my car in these! lol

Those look interesting, but would be a hassle to do this every time you park... but it'd be worth it.

Except that anyone could just walk by and yank them off the car if they wanted to.

Usually parking far away works.

Until this time, but it was a shopping cart...

yah, one of my earlier hobby cars have been hit by a shopping cart before.

i took the car to this PDR place and watched the guy push it out. that's when i decided i'd learn PDR myself. it's a handy thing to know how to do.
