There's an ongoing debacle that I'm currently in with another userid on here. He stated that his brother not only opened the wrong but similar car but was actually trying to start the ignition before being accosted by the owner. Now, I've owned quite a number of cars, well over 100, and have rented many and I have never ever tried to open the door of another car, let alone get inside that car and try to start it. Personally, my cars are customized somewhat that they always stand out, but by the time I get inside the car I would have known. Smell, seat adjustment, placement of items, etc So, have you done this before and if so what were the parameters to cause you to violate another man's ride in such a uncouth manner  |

It might be true, I actually witnessed one. The guy was drunk though, he even broke the door knob before the owner came. After the altercations, we discovered that his own car was parked behind the one he was trying to open 4 Likes |

Yemight2: Well, his Brother was at a market buying stuff so he wasn't drunk. Drunks don't count by the way. Drunks who shat in their car thinking they are sitting on the toilet, vomit al over the door thinking the window is open, etc. |

I have once tried opening someone's car. I went to use an ATM, parked just facing the machine, immediately after another car with similar colour parked. When I was done with the transaction, I walked straight and began trying to open the door of the next car with my car key. I only realised it wasn't mine when the door refused to open. The way I move away run go my car ehn Today afternoon, I was parked just outside someone gate, having a talk with a friend by the side of my car when I saw a woman come out from the gate of the house I was parked in front and opened my car door(the door wasn't locked since I was standing by the side). I saw her looking for something in the car. It was the guy I was with that told her the car wasn't her husband's own . The lady quickly apologized and ran inside the compound 37 Likes 1 Share |

EgunMogaji: I think it is very possible When the mind is preoccupied with something entirely different and person is not really conscious of the surrounds. At that time he/she is not actually looking but is moving with the general idea that they're supposed to get into a midsize car. They have the trim and the color at the back of their mind. If they're unlucky the lock will open. What I do not understand is how they still do not realize they're in the wrong car after getting in. 27 Likes 1 Share |

Interesting topic People should be careful . This recession has frustrated so many people, they're looking for who and where to vent out their frustrations on. Imagine someone spotting a stronger trying to open his car, na tyre and petrol things be that. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

EgunMogaji: Quite possible. Happened to me many years ago with the old family Mercedes W124. I actually unlocked another W124 in the country club parking lot one fine evening. Same exterior colour and whatnot. I took one look at the interior and slammed the door shut, locked it and went hunting for ours which was just two cars away. Really shook my faith in Mercedes keys and locks back then. 5 Likes |

It is possible. I, my friend and cousin went out. My cousin was tired and asked for the key of the car that she wanted to wait in there. We got downstairs and found her sitting in the wrong car; same color and model. We laughed at her and hurriedly told her to get out of the car. 18 Likes |

I can never forget that day of my life.... just graduated from a senior secondary school hence I was enrolled into a computer training school within my environ... It was this late Friday evening (Black Friday).. as I was about going home after having d day's training.. Behold I saw one cool beautiful Benz parked in front of the computer institute and I was wow..... (jocularly) I called on my mates in d centre (computer centre) to join me in my new car to have a cool Friday fun.. unknowingly the owner of the car was sitting at opposite point of the computer centre (Groceries Store) so I held the handle of the driver's door not knowing D door wasn't locked so the door got opened. From afar once the man (owner) sighted me he yelled and shouted.....!!! U are a thief "this is how u guys go around to steal people's car"... instantly I felt the ground should just open and consume me. Before I say Jack I realised 4 Horrible and Resounding slap have landed on my cheek hence I was surrounded by so many people passing different comments and all.. Tears starts rolling down my eyes and despite d effort of my young and innocent senior brother and mates to plead on my behalf, all pleads fell on the man's deaf ear until some RRS men who were passing by intervened and ordered the man to let me be... I sometimes see the man on the street, he couldn't recognize me anymore coz of my change in stature and physique...I have forgiven him though.. It's a gruesome experience 8 Likes 1 Share |
