Ouch. I eat there all the time.
I really try my hardest to park in front of the restos, even if it's not the one I'm eating at... as long as there's lots of people around. The gravel parking lot really isn't secure.
There's roving security, but there aren't any barricades at the exits. If you don't give your ticket and rush out, what are they going to do? Chase you on their bicycles?
Kahit saan ka mag-park... common sense pa rin... don't leave your vehicle in a temptingly remote spot, and don't leave your valuables in plain sight.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

December 21st, 2006 11:58 PM #13It does? Kasi ako whenever I park say, in Powerplant, I never leave valuables inside the car. The ticket/card they give you when you enter doesn't mean nothing in your car will get stolen. For me, it just means they'll (the robbers) have a very, very hard time getting the vehicle outside the parking area.

kaya nga ako bumili ng E61, kaysa magdala ng laptop araw-araw eh.
naks plugging!
pero seriously, moderno na din po mga thieves, they're familiar with laptop bags, camera bags, mobile dvd players sa tsikot, mini-projectors and other gadgets. sa mga tig 20 pesos ng i-cafe lang makikita mo mga yan nagbabasa din dito sa mga tech forums kaya alam na alam na nila yan.
last year sa Manila sa Kalaw, pinuwersa ng master key yun Chevy venture namin kasi may sinakay ako projector screen. wala naman dun yun projector at dala ko pero grabe gasgas ng passenger side key and pag loose ng handle. may detachment pa dun ng pulis sa Luneta.
heavily-tinted pa yun van ha. pero natiktikan ata ako.

December 22nd, 2006 06:36 PM #16The moral lesson is: never give the (would be) thieves a reason to open your car...
Place all valuables out of plain sight... Better yet, take it with you...

I read somewhere na those cars that park backwards catch the attention of crooks much more than those that park forwards (normally).

too bad, guarded parking doesnt assure us that it is safe and secured..
next time , owner-type jeep na lang dalhin natin para wala ng babasaging passenger window...

yeah, it's unfortunate. although i think the supreme court has already declared that pay parking establishments are liable for such theft, despite what's written on the ticket. when they collect fees, it's not only for renting the space, but also for the security of your car and its belongings. i don't know for free ticketed parking though. anyhow, this does not assure you of a hassle free claim, sad to say.
To some extent, i don't even think they'll have such a hard time. Clerks at the exit booths rarely, if ever, check whether the plate indicated in the ticket corresponds to the exiting car's plate. If someone really wanted your car bad, they can bring in a stolen car and take another out.
the triumph of man over... man!, using the crudest of implements (by modern standards).
Traffic!
