We can all rest easy that when you hand the keys of your precious Mercedes over to a valet, they will treat your ride with respect.......well, maybe NOT!!! Check out the second video, valets using your car as a valet shuttle, parking your car on the street getting parking tickets, jamming parking meters with paperclips....YIKES!!!!

This is why - when the valet opens your door and waits for you to get out - you pull out your cell phone and take a picture of the odometer, making sure he saw you do it.

I worked as a valet at a collector auto auction event in Phoenix. All the guys working there were in their early 20s. We drove exotics, classic cars and brand new high end luxury vehicles. No one ever treated anyone else's car with anything but the highest regard. Coolest thing I got to drive was an F355 Spider. Lamest thing was a Toyota Highlander.

I was a lot boy at an exotic car dealership, I cannot say the same.

So when the dealership took my CTS-V for a 20 mile joy ride and blew the clutch, busted the rear end mount and left greasy handprints and pizza in my backseat I have to say Karma is a *****.
