This is why I always fold my mirror in when I park on the street.

Yep, 'people' nowadays are dishonest, self-important cowards for the most part. I blame TV.....or rather, I blame the parents because they aren't around or don't give a damn enough to bother, hence the TV raises the kids.

mirror to mirror contact. it happens a lot. this has happened to my CRV 3 times. thank goodness it never broke or cracked. on the last occurance, there were glass fragment on the street. i thought for sure it was my mirror because my mirrors folded the other way. But it was broken mirror from the car that hit me.

i noticed on that particular street, most cars have there mirrors folded in.

People have no respect these days. That's why, we are living in the "ghetto era".
