I do exactly the same. Many times they even return the key to me.
However the amount of the tips are usually lower where I live.

haha! I do this every time. The valet told me it's against policy because of insurance reasons even though all I had to do was back in to a spot....

I always give the valet guy $5-10 to let me park it right in front somewhere and I keep my key.

When you guys self park your cars in front of a valet stand for example, do you take the key with you? Has a valet ever turned you down to park your car out front?

This video kept going from whisper quiet to ear piercingly loud too.

yes i keep my key. If they wont let me i leave and go somewhere else or find other parking. There are a million restaurants and night clubs to go to in Miami so i have no reason to "deal with" giving up my key.

plenty of exterior shots of the hotel in their account, at least a few photos of plates (a personalized plate on a Mustang is clearly illinois, the others seem to be other NE states and/or DC (not living remotely near there, i dont identify the plates so quickly)

But with the exterior of the hotel...I gotta think it will be very possible to nail down exactly where these losers work and from there who they are (as they are dumb enough to appear on camera....even if the photos are not that great)

i saw some snow on the ground in a few pics and a few Virginia and DC tags so i think you were right about it being up in that area.

Everytime I take my car to valet, I ALWAYS bring up that I'm aware of the current milage on it, point to it, and tell them "I'll know if you joy ride".

It helps too that a lot of valet kids now a days don't know how to drive MT, I've actually had to park it myself two times.

But I'm with everyone else- if I can avoid valet, or self park- ALWAYS go that route.

ALWAYS. Like mentioned above- if they refuse, go somewhere else. Most will be ok with it

That was my guess.

In this picture you can see the logo of the hotel behind the M4 (blurred out a bit though)

Anyone recognize the logo?

Clearly downtown area.

(though from other pictures, fairly 'low rise' which makes me think DC....)

I love how they have the youtube comments disabled. It's like they know people will be disgusted at them before they actually post the videos!

They need to have valet mode in cars now since cars are mostly drive by wire. Valet mode should limit the max speed to 30mph, RPM to 3000 max, and drop the speed to 15mph if the car is driven more than 2 miles.
