I learned my lesson after someone stalled in front of me then proceeded to kill my battery by not putting it in reverse to power it down, That said, It's easier said than done sometimes to park yourself. You always get these jerks once in a while that try to convince you to drive it. "I drive ferrari's all the time..." In my head, I'm thinking I dont give a crap 
Slipping them a little cash and telling them "my clutch is slipping" is my new technique that works well.

Valet parking suck......but some parking lot in NYC is valet only. I try to avoid but sometime you have no choice. Two month ago, I was late to a important meeting and the place is valet only parking. Two day later, my wife found out her Dior sun glass was missing and the coin purse (for parking meter) was gone.
Need less to said, it was stolen by the valet The parking lot deny everything and we have to call the NYPD......however, the cop don't want to write a report since it was two days ago. They even blame us for leaving valuable on the car. I later found out that all the valet in this lot has criminal record.....not surprise!!!

You want me to leave my car keys with you for a few days, while I am on a cruise ? Um, No, it just invites trouble, there are plenty of places to park cars in secure locations and you hang on to the keys.
This is far worse then any normal restaurant valet, that only has access to your car a few minutes at most...

Actually I shouldn't say never, I would valet if I am driving a car like this to save the hassle of parking myself. No valet will joyride that and the car certainly can't get any worse, so why not? No tips either
