Pet Peeve I: Valet Parking Charges
Why, ask the 2Bears, does it cost $7 to pay someone to drive your car from the Swissotel entrance to the car park below ? That's the difference between the valet charge and the parking cost. It's nighttime robbery.
It's also extremely annoying for the 2Bears to pay $6 for valet parking at Rochester Park, when the car is promptly driven 15 metres and left by the curb. We could have done it ourselves.
In both cases, car valet operators are merely preying upon desperate drivers, rendered helpless by "Car Park Full" signs. Some of the less sympathetic among you will no doubt say "don't drive then". But that would just get me started on the taxi system ...
