go to a place with a large size parking lot. be the first one to arrive. park your car. 4 out of 5 people to arrive after you will park their car next to yours, although the parking lot is completely empty.

To the OP. What you're going to have to do is go back to wherever it was that you originally noted how bright it was, tilt your head back, look vertically. If there is a street light that will be youre answer.

SNOW plays a huge factor in how bright it is at night.

I don't know man, they still seem to find a way... lemme tell you a story..

A few years ago I was helping my parents move some bags of cement and somehow managed to pull a muscle in my abdomen. It's painful as hell and makes it really hard to twist/bend at the waist.

So on one of the days I had taken off work I decided to make some chili and went to the grocery store to pick up everything I needed.

At the time I drove a 2 door Accord so the doors were kind of long and I wanted to make sure I could open it all the way and get out of the car with the least amount of pain possible so I parked at the VERY back of the lot. It made for a longer walk (painful) but it wasn't as bad as having to try and a squeeze in to my car if the door doesn't open all the way.

Well I did my shopping and when I came out I found that some had driven in to the lot in a bit of a hurry and cut the spot beside me SO tight that he was parked over the line in to my spot.

I was soooo mad it wasn't even funny.

My Accord was a bit older and not in the best shape so I made sure I opened that door NICE and hard in to the side of their van. (more than once).

I think it's pretty crappy to mess with someones car like that but at the same time I think it was justified considering the pain I had to endure trying to squeeze in to the 8" gap I was left with when trying to climb in my car.

lmao, I would have done the same thing. I hate people who can't park properly, it pisses me off, but I haven't had any problems. I park directly in the middle of two spots. I can open my doors and still have room to the lines. It's better than having my alarm warning chirp every time I'm out. lol besides if anything gets too close they quickly understand why I'm parked like this. If you stay out of the area, its all good, get too close and my van will let you know. 2 horns and 4 very loud obnoxious chirps. lmao
