I encourage everyone to take some sort of first aid/survival/first responder/emergency care coarse.
I could tell the girl who hit him had no idea. The ONLY comment I heard her say was "Have you ever gotten stitches?"
Not quite the first thing I'd want to hear after getting hit by a car...

Very valid point, but, the way I see it, everyone has a cell phone now-a-days, call 911, just cause, better safe than sorry, they won't fine you if you're overlapping someone else's call. Better safe than sorry when someone's life COULD be at risk.

Oh yeah I totally agree about the 911 thing. I was there for the Valley of the Moon park shooting, I was put on hold because everyone and their brother was on a cell dialing 911.

Are you calling out your own parents?

According to http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/parent :
Definition of PARENT

1
a : one that begets or brings forth offspring


Just saying

Umm...Just because kids get older, doesn't mean that their parents stop caring. There is no magical date that it stops and may if fact never stop.

Now, if they're meddling, being nosy, giving bad advice, I agree, that's another story.

Be sure to not confuse the two.

To be honest, this seems like a very logical parking job. Way out there in the middle of nowhere do they will have easy of getting out of there. Also they parked on your driver side meaning they off load on the opposite side of you. No chance of them hitting your car. Seems legit.

Okay, but what about the other campers in the background? Or moving one space over? Or moving ahead one more lane? Why make a poor, sports car owner afraid that something might have happened to his car by parking right THERE?

What's troubling you? (actual question, no judgment) Most people with engine problems hate SOA. Hope it's not the case with you.

i agree that part of the lot is great for big ole RVs but i think the lot was empty enough to have parked anywhere else besides right next to me. people in Alaska already have a hard time parking their full size trucks, how much better could they park a RV?

the point here is out of all the spots to park, why next to me

Some people know, some people don't. If I posted everything here I would surely ruffle more feathers than I already have, which I'm not quite yet ready to do. Let's just say that I just got off the phone with SoA this morning expecting to hear from a Customer Service Supervisor later today to discuss warranty denial based on a lie.

I will have you know that my car actually drives better than it did off the lot when I got it almost exactly 2 years ago. Ignorance is bliss, as they say, and reality set in very hard this year.

Keep fighting. SOA will give different answers depending on who you track down.

Yeah, no one called me today. I'll call tomorrow and continue to try and be nice.

I just had yet another member PM me about a similar issue they're having with their 2011 WRX. I gave him a whole battle plan in dealing with SoA and warranties. Let's see if he follows and makes it past Private status. I need souljahs!

Reminds me of an incident last summer.

Stopped by Lowes on a Sunday night like 20 mins before they were closing to get some bags of concrete.

Parking lot almost empty.

I get out and there's a mini van parked against the back of my truck. It was my oldier duallie work truck so I didn't really care that they tweaked the rusting off bumper, but WTH still?!

I doubt they appreciated 80lbs bags of concrete drug across their hood, but maybe next time they won't park like idiots.
