I think that was a little extreme, but its your life. How long ago was this? You do realize they have recording cameras in the parking lot.

My friend and i already slashed this persons tire because he took 2 parking spots at the local walmart. We did this because we saw what the person looked like. Normally i dont do such a bad thing because it might be some old lady that cant park well or could be anything. But it was a dude, looks cocky as hell and literally took 2 spots, like the line was dead center under his car. Well im sure he wasnt happy to see a slashed rear tire when he came back from shopping.

I think it depends on where you do it... if you're at the back of the lot where no one is really, I'm ok with it. doing it in crowded areas will probably only lead to your car being vandalised.

I would never touch another person's car like that but, as you can see, there are people that do. This is why i park as far way as possible in 1 spot.

Might be but its hard to understand the entire situation when i just told you vaguely how the story went.

Not like i purposely do this on a daily, sit around in a parking lot and wait for people to take 2 spots, then slash their tires.

I was looking for a spot (busy sunday morning, YES i did the tire slash in broad daylight) and i was in a rush, and i already had my signal to turn into the spot but there was a car blocking my car i guess? and the benz dude was coming from the other direction and did a tight 90 degree turn into the spot i was gonna pull ANNNDDD the spot next to it. How coincidental is that? 2 open spots that i was gonna pull into 1, then some dude out of nowhere comes and takes both?

No no no, i wasnt gonna have that so i parked towards the end and did the move, went into the store, and left 10 minutes later all happy. lol

I saw a guy at SEATAC put his footprint in the drivers side door of a Mercedes SUV for taking up 2 spots. Anyone who's been to SEATAC would probably say it was warranted. I gave they guy a thumbs up.

haha I wish I saw that, when I work in bellevue I see people all the time driving nice cars they can't enven park, they leave the front end sticking four feet over on the sidewalk in everyones way or leave the wheels cranked to one side in he next spot over I usually check my car out real nice when someone parks shitty next to it and observe if there is any red paint on there doors. Hit my car with your door and I will put my size 12's all over every body panel on yours, I have little tollorance for **** like that.
