car parks, do cars get lonely, I think they must!!!

I don't know if anyone else has had this happen to them, but it keeps on happening to me at present.

Why is it that when you go to a supermarket, garden centre or anywhere with big car parks, when there are only a few cars in it, you get some pratt park so close to you that you can only just get to the door, let alone get in the the blooming thing.

for the last few days, I've been parking in some big carparks.
Good I think, loads of space , I'll park right over there where its totally empty.

Came out 15mins later, and there is a car either side of my motor, so close that it was unreal.
Now the car park was massive, with only a handfull of cars in it, so why do people do it.
Are cars attracted to each other, or do there owners think they need company, or there is safety in numbers.
It really gets on my tit frankly, anyone else suffered similar.
end of tuesday soap box peeps.

have a nice evening peeps.

No, it's absolutely true.

When I first got my car I was paranoid about people parking close and clanging their doors into it as they got in or out of their car. I made a point of doing exactly the same thing. Big car park, go and park the car right out on it's own. Same thing happened, there were always cars parked close on either side, a little cluster of cars in an otherwise empty car park.

Weird. There must be some subtle psychology going on somewhere.
