The sad fact is no matter how much we practice defensive parking, there are billions of bad and careless parkers out ther indicriminately opening their doors and driving their cars into ours.
I sold a Toyota the other day, and in between agreeing on a sale and getting it road worthied on the Friday morning, and cleaned on the Saturday morning, two separate peopel put car park damage on the car. ARGH! last thing I wanted was to have to get ti fixed before it was collected on the Monday!
Mad scramble to buff out the scratch down the side and clean up the scuff and indentation ont he rear bumper from a tow ball / bull bar.
BEWARE.
They are out there and in their billions!
