Don't know how all this played out,
Car is parked up close to a Loves on I65. It has 2 flat tires on the drivers side. In any case it appears neither should have happened

I suspect I'm thinking the same as you as to why the 2 tires have little to no air pressure

Just hit the spikes strip on the drivers side, got this far and bailed out. Surprised the doors weren't left open.

One flat for each parking space he/she took up!

That's terrible that someone flattened the tires. I can see how that would annoy some people, but it's no cause for damaging the car. Confront the owner, but that would mean face-to-face conflict and most people are cowards when it comes to that. Perfect example is how people speak to others on social media. They wouldn't say what they posted to someone's face. Cowards...

I know that people who do this are just trying to protect their paint from chips, but they should just park farther away from the store entrance and they wouldn't need to take up two spots, but most are too lazy and selfish.

I always park way out of the way. Heck, I could use the exercise anyway!

I work at a tire shop. I've seen tires wiped out on one side from hitting lumber, mufflers or other road debris. Actually a camper is parked waiting for me Monday with 2 flats on one side, actually missing the tires entirely, and sadly, most of the fender flairs as. Well. One of our good customers sort of had a bad day. I have also had a car with 4 flats on a wrecker begging for 4 used tires.. knowing the guy, I understood why they were flat.

Agree, the world is getting way to its all about the person in the mirror and not about others.

I park in the back to get more exercise and also protects the truck

As I stated in my earlier post...I'm with you on both accounts.
It's become a selfish and lazy world.
What ever happened to the "golden rule"? I'll bet anyone under 40 doesn't even know what that is....

Big fan of Challengers. But, I don't like to see how people park with nice cars. No doubt he was asking for it. But, it still never should have happened....... I too park as far away as I can, for the exercise....That's what happens when we get old...🧓
