Default I live in Los Angeles (more)

I usually dont valet my car, but once I had to and noticed the next morning the right side had a bunch of scrapes on it. The valet company assumes no liablity as do all of them. What you must consider is a minimum wage punk who doesnt give a **** is parking your car. Do you really think he is going to be careful when he know he is not held liable for a ny damages that ensues.

Default I had to valet once, and the valet said. "Hell yeah, been wanting to drive one of these babies!"...

so I got back in the car and self-parked.

Default I valeted once at the Beverly Hills Hotel - didn't have any problems to the car, but ...

I still felt very uncomfortable doing it. We have a meeting coming up at the Ritz Carlton - and its a valet-only parking place too!
