This might happen to you guys too...
You guys who live where ya gotta parallel park... you'll understand this one.
All the new cars have plastic bumpers and even shocks behind them! So, when average Joe goes to parallel on the street, he bumps the car behind him, and bumps the car in front of him. Ya GOTTA, just cuz the spots are so damn tight...
WELL, it's a little different bumping into a solid metal trailer hitch
I used to laugh when I'd get to my truck in the morning and see a 2" square dent in the hood behind my truck. Poor parkers never saw it coming!
