Who backs into a car 5 (FIVE) times without noticing???
This happened to me today in the pick up line at Ms. Bellies school. While trying, and I emphasize trying, to parallel park a mom hit my front bumper 5 times!!
After the third time, I got out and looked at her like she was a maniac! When I saw she was going to do it again I got back in my car to assure the boys that they were okay.
The fourth hit moved my car back about a foot, even though I was in park.
The fifth hit, she put her car in park and her brake lights went out. Once again I got out of my car to look at my bumper. She then gets out of her van and says "oh, did I bump you? so sorry!"
Luckily, there was no damage to my trusty station wagon, but her back bumper had dents all in it.
So be warned! If you see a beige Honda Odyssey with a dented bumper in a parking lot while out Christmas shopping, beware! You might just lose a side mirror!

How can you not notice that you are bumping someone's car? I would have honked at her but that probably would cause her to jerk the wheel and really do some damage.
You are way nicer than I am. After the second bump I would have been at her driver's side window telling her to find somewhere else to park (and I might have added "you incompent idiot" if there were no kids in her van to hear me. Good thing you have that trusty station wagon.
