Default this ever happen to you?

i have monday and tuesday nights off.. so i run my errands. i went 4 places today, each time i came out there was another rover parked next to mine. never happened before. i took a picture of the last one for the fun of it. its a crappy pic.. but you get the idea.

the tiburon forum i was on for a few years had a "spotted" thread. is there one here? i dont see a lot of rovers by me.

It happens regularly in the UK and sometimes in France. It's called the HERDING INSTINCT where they feel safer or better 'en masse' together in numbers.

The other quirky thing often is, you park in a car park far away from others to avoid damage with a longer walk to the store or wherever and when you come out some idiot has parked 1 foot from your car door and the car park is still half empty with hundreds of alternative spaces available. Beggars belief what's in their heads sometimes.

Rovers Birds of a feather. etc.
True about parking away from everyone. There are lead dogs and there are sheep. Never understood this.
