People keep saying park on the back by yourself, but others say that's where you'd most likely get hit. I just want my car to be safe!!

very far away from minivans/SUVs and high traffic areas

Nowhere is safe...

I keep parking at way far away spots and there's always a shthead who parks next to White Lighting...

Best stay away from anything a woman would drive. Honestly.

to the right of other cars as most cars are single drivers

In your garage with thick steel walls. It doesn't matter what you do there will always be incompetent asswipes that just have to park next to you >.>

Because all you're doing is calling attention to your car.

Park next to curbs when you can to protect at least one side of the car. Park in spots where people have left a large berth. Beyond that, there's nothing you can do. Stay away from minivans and SUVs in places where there would be a lot of children. Beyond that, you could try prayer.

A spot with a car to your left and a median/curb to your right. Close to the curb, but watch out for door scrapes if you have a passenger. Not at the back of the lot, but not in the main part, just on the edge of parked cars. Maybe where the employees park since they are less likely to leave. Never near a cart corral.

Park next to the most valuable car in the lot. The driver will understand, as long as you don't ding his door.

Just hire someone like this, but make sure you get one who isn't lazy and won't sit on your car.
