Well I have parked my cars everywhere since 1978, not once have my mirrors been damaged. If people walked that close, I would be worried about other things. Do you realize most modern car's mirrors have hinges to go back and forward to prevent from breaking?
Where do you park? I guess it's the cool factor.
I know I'm late as hell but for people who live and park in urban areas (i.e. street parking) the folding in of mirrors is pretty essential. Can't always try to present your own experiences as the end all be all of circumstances.
