When trying to warn other drivers about certain things they’re doing that might get them in trouble, sometimes putting the ‘passive’ in ‘aggressive’ is the best course of action.
Upon noticing just how close a somebody parked their Mercedes opposite his ForTwo, the owner of the Smart put his thoughts on the matter on paper without insulting the other driver.
In fact, he called this car a “nice Merc”. As far as we can tell thanks to these images from Indy100, it’s an AMG-Line C-Class and that bumper to bumper action is actually a lot more dangerous than it looks.
People who frequently park their cars way too close to other surrounding vehicles, not only risk hitting them (even if it’s more of a gentle tap) but more importantly risk getting hit by them when the other car is trying to pull out of the parking spot. You never know what other drivers are going to do or how good they are at approximating distances.
Also, as nice as that C-Class is, we think that Smart deserves to props too on behalf of those wheels. They’ve got a very aggressive design which you really don’t get to see everyday.
Bottom line, do you think being cheeky or passive aggressive is better than just letting it go? Or would you rather wait for the owner and give him or her a piece of your mind?
