Parking lot herd mentality

Is it just me? I usually park far away from whatever building I'm shopping at so I don't get door dinged or ding someone else. Many times, I mean many times, someone will park next to me when there are dozens of empty parking spaces nearby. Usually closer to the building, too. I just don't understand.
Went in to get something to eat at a small restaurant, the parking lot was empty. This is what I found when I walked back to my car. I could barely get in my car because I couldn't open the door all the way. Wish I had framed the picture better, there were plenty of empty spaces, including ahead of the truck.

It's obvious that he doesn't care about others and probably can't drive either, I've run across some truck drivers who have the mentality of a 12 year old
