Where is my car in this parking lot?

"Hey look, I can beep my horn from my phone!"

Surely there's better ways of achieving the goal of finding your car in a car park
It's a shame we don't have like little keychains that can unlock or beep our cars from afar. We're not living _that_ far in the future though, I suppose.
Yeah, it's called being observant when you park your car. I mean, how hard is it to look around and remember a few landmarks?
That kind of depends how drunk you are. And that might matter a lot more once the cars start driving themselves.
Which is incredibly stupid, and forbidden in most European countries: you cannot use your horn unless it's an emergency. Finding your car is not an emergency.
> you cannot use your horn unless it's an emergency

Hahaha, you've never been downtown in a European city, have you?

LOL I've done this so many times... who ever remembers where they left their car? I lose mine at the station almost every day :D
