Lets say you have a nicer car and you are going to an event in a major downtown city. Will your car be safe parking it with the valet service? I always get nervous when I leave my car downtown and out of my sight for a few hours (and at night time).

  1. Tell'ya a little story. In my previous incarnation I was a corporate shill,a tool of 'the man' so to speak. The only time I ever let anyone park my only new car i ever owned was deep in the bowels of a country club where we held our yearly 'holiday party' It was safer than betting that Bill & Hillary sleep in separate rooms. On a side note, this media conglomerate was so cheap they had the party at the end of January to save money. The end of January...what the h**l kinda holiday is there then?, St. Cheapos Day? Other than that,I always deal w/ my own automobile on my own terms. Valets? sooner  let a starving chimp hold my last slice of banana cream pie.


  2. I guess it depends on who the valet is.

  3. NO !!

    They had a TV news story about this.  They put hidden cameras in the car and watched.  Majority of the Valet went though the car to see if they can steal something valuable.

    Luckily they usually just steel coins, etc.

    But if you were to leave a GPS or camera buried, and it looks like it's been there, they will assume you probably forgot about it and steal it.

    So clean out your car of any valuable.

    good Luck...

  4. Here in Vegas we are back and forth from #1 to #2 on the stolen car list. If you have a nice car and want to park it at a mall, theater, or casino for more then a minute then anything they do to in in valet is much better then it being stolen.

  5. Yeah, it's totally fine. Just make sure they're valet before you give them your keys, haha

  6. Yes. They usually are reptuable and reliable. If your car is like extremely rare and expensive maybe you should rent a car that is still nice but not yours. :)
