Just ugh ..... Went to Michaels yesterday to pick up some frame work. I always park out away from everyone to avoid bad drivers, and what happens? A lady smacks me. I was backing out carefully, watching the mirrors and cameras. She is in a space about 3 places away from my space, adjacent parking row. I am fully backed out, brake on, about to shift into drive, when she puts her vehicle in reverse and tears out backwards ass butting into me at full speed. How she was unable to see my huge BMW is beyond me. COVID brain or just an irresponsible, bad driver? Of course, she was in a beater SUV, and it was difficult to tell what damage on her vehicle was from this incident, or was pre-existing. I do have a good bit of her white paint on my black bumper. So, off to the dealership this morning to get repair estimates.  We've had some close calls like that, too. Thankfully, we haven't gotten crunched yet. One thing I've noticed is people are truly acting like zombies. They just stare straight ahead and push right through even when there's not a soul in their direction but me! At first, I didn't think too much about it, but it's happening at least once, every time we're out. I think I'm not going to move out of the way next time and see what happens. I don't know why people are doing this, but they can't be watching where they're going. I wonder if they'll run into me with their cart?Same here. People at the grocery shoving their carts around like they are the only person in the store. Something is clearly going on with a large number of people. Just got back from the dealership -- $9800.00 in damage, and that is assuming they do not find any other damage to the cameras, sensors or exhaust system when they remove the bumper. Thank God for insurance. Shouldn't the other driver's insurance be paying for the damage?
