People who double park obviously can't keep it between the lines...This one lady, here in Durham parks over the line in a parking lot with limited spots EVERY day. I've written notes, but would never go so far as to vandalize. Still, I would laugh if someone did ding her door or spray paint the car...totally deserved. Loved when that one bystander asked if he had double parked, then laughed.

As far as people talking about kicking someones ass as the first response...perhaps. Problem is, too many people these days take the violent approach first, rather than examining what it is that THEY are doing that is pissing people off. Driving in the left lane, taking up multiple spots, handicapped parking, not speeding up to the flow of traffic...all of these are basic things you need to know about driving...yet some people think they are above the rules. Even speeding is one of those things. Some people bitch and moan about how the cop is shafting them, rather than admitting that they screwed up and were doing something stupid.

We had an ice storm here in NC last week. Several lights were out, yet NO-ONE was stopping at the lights that were dark like you are supposed to. I had one douchbag, then try to pass me on the right when I made a stop because he apparently didn't want to follow the traffic laws or common sense.

I feel that people that double park fall in to the same category as those other douchebags who think the laws and courtesies of driving don't matter...it's all about them...then act like it's not their problem
