If you take the end spot and then park far away from the curb to be a dick, you probably deserve to get your car banged up. I love end spots. I snuggle right up against that curb.

This is why I pick the end spot. I have a wide car and I don't want it getting banged...so I hug that edge like a mother fucker.

Make it easy for people to not ding your car, and you won't get your car dinged.

Even when I’m driving my little mazda3, in love being by the curb or parking a few spots further away to have nobody on either side of me. Having the room and getting the extra 10 seconds of exercise are both good in my eyes.

I work in transport, it's a race every morning to get one of the 12-14 kerb spots so you can hug that kerb for safety, and it guarantees one side won't get a door opened into it.
