how often does your car get hit by someone opening their door?
at my school, we have the smallest parking spots ever, every single one is labeled COMPACT. also the people who go to my school are very careless and they'll hit your car with their doors and not make it a big deal. happens almost everyday at school, i always find something new on my car. i remember one time i was walking to my car, a girl in a white civic parks right next to me, and she opens her door...WHAM...i hear her door just hit my car, i go to my car and said to her, "you just hit my car," and she just says, "yea, whatever," and goes on to class..
i hate careless people, i wish i had a large truck to run over their cars...anybody have problems with people slamming their door into your car?

This stuff happens....if you live in the city people will scratch up your bumpers parking. Live in the suburbs and white people will scratch up your doors in parking spaces... I've had my car for 2 months and the bumpers already have plenty of battle scars.
Be grateful you have parking at your school, I have to park my car in the projects and then walk to school.

Doors
I went into starbucks...parked in a spot with alot of room next to me...stupid 20 something fatass parks way too close to me right on the line..come out, she of course hit my door...Buffed out the scratch, but theres a minor crease there still, buit its seriosly so minor noone except me notices it...I was lucky, i guess...but never again...always gotta park far far away. People are lazy amd careless.

I've had to go to a paintless dent removal place 2 or 3 times to get door dings removed, but not recently. I always try to park at an end spot and move as far to the left or right (depending on what end) that I can. Either that or park somewhere in the back 40 and walk a little further.

I have about 20, not kidding, dents from people opening their doors and hitting my car, it pisses me off so fukcing much.
Maxamazation: If I were you I'd drive a car that I didn't care about and open the door and hit her car a few times. If you don't have a car you don't wanna mess up just hit her car with a hammer.
This is just what I would do, some may say it's wrong but I like to get back at people who mess my stuff up.

the week that my dad bought his new car 2002 BMW X5, its expensive $62000, somebody hit it with a shopping cart and left a 1 inch round paint chip in the rear bumper. I dont understand how people just let these things happen. Reminds me of the VW commercial where he runs and dives to make it avoid hitting the car

Next time I come back to a door ding and know it was caused by whose next to me there's going to be some revenge taken. However, the person who dinged me...had dings scratches and dents everywhere to begin with..sometimes its not even worth it.

Funny you should ask.....it happened TODAY. Me being me, I saw ol' boy in his red truck w/ his door open and said "hmm...he looks a little close". I get home, finally see my passenger side door and ol' boy left me a ding w/ some red highlights. it's sexy as hell on my sterling mist.

Man, I used to make fun of my buddy at work for parking so far away from anyone until some a-hole dinged my drivers door. Now I park as far away from other cars as I can. But, I only do this at work. I've never had a problem anywhere else.

Some lady in the ugliest car in the world pulled up next to me (Honda Element). She parked kind of far, so I went back to napping and waiting in the parking lot. Next thing I hear a loud clunk, and the ladies already walking away. Get out and notice a nice long scrape on my fender from the door. After that the wind must've took my door when I was opening it for my passenger and left a dent in her door

About every day. This car got me though almost 6 years of college, now it's starting the relative retirement of a normal job's parking lot. If you have a nice car don't even think about driving it to school.

Lately, when I park outside my dorm, people have been moving out (leaving school for the summer), and they always have all their doors opened and are walking around with boxes and sh*t. I'm sure my car has been hit several times that I don't know about. But what can you really do?

My car had a few dings when I bought it, but I don't think I have added any since I've owned it. I try to park a ways away. I figure all the lazy fat azz people will try to get as close to the door of the school/store/mall, etc., as possible.
One time I was driving my mom's Ford farm truck (95 F250 4x4 diesel) to the store and some fat slob lady pulled in way too close and was too lazy to re-park. She opened her door smack into the truck. I saw the whole thing when I was walking out -- she even inspected it. I pretended to go to another car while she walked in the store.
When I inspected it, I saw a nice red mark on my mom's white truck. Then I got in, slid over to the passenger side, checked to see if anyone was looking, opened that fluckin door about as hard as I could -- putting a nice dent in the lady's buick (or olds or whatever) -- then proceded to start up the truck and drive off. Maybe that wasn't too nice, but I was pissed she didn't even leave a note.

I just bash doors in now when i get door dings. You leave me a ding and I am leaving you a size ten boot imprint in your door. I am completely fed up with door dings and non-careful owners. I am practically buddies with my local Dent Wizard guy. I can't even tell you how many door dings i have had before and money I dish out on ding removals. My latest one was at Best Buy Virginia where some guy/girl hit me and left me a huge crease the size of a baseball with red paint on my passenger door. It was a new Red durango that was parked entirely to close to my car (and i am at the end space) and not leaving any room for my fiance to open the door to get in. No note or nothing. I waited for 45 minutes for the person to come back to the car and no one showed up. I got fed up and just kicked the door. Payback is a ***** and I know the driver knew they hit my car because there were finger prints on my car where the ding was. I keep a disposable camera in my glove box so i took pictures just incase they got my tag numbers, i also have thier tag numbers and pictures of the durango and others who have hit me for reference. Call me mean I don't care, while i am getting my dent removed and getting my car painted from the red mark I know some one in VA will be doing the same.

boo hoo people. it's a ding or scratch on you car, deal with it. don't even get me started on road rage and the ignorance and anger built up in some people. no wonder people are always getting shot in this country, because they over-react about insignificant things such as their precious car that they're spending their whole paycheck on each month, getting dinged, or some mishap on the road which no accident or anything resulted from. chill out america! and for all you school children...take action and get the dent fixed instead of whine about it and go out like a biatch.
