Never. I won't ever let anyone I don't know personally drive my cars. No exceptions.

Way too many horror stories about people getting cars back with new dents, scratches, dings, etc. and they simply say "eet wuz liike dat wheen yoo geev eet too mee senor". Good luck proving it. Even if you could, good luck collecting.

I also find it obnoxious that these guys expect to be tipped for doing something I can do myself (and prefer to). I understand some people really like valet service and are willing to pay/tip for it. That's fine. However people should have the choice - in L.A. a lot of the underground building garages utilize tandem spaces and therefore building codes REQUIRE valet service. Makes it a major pain because I refuse to use such things (for the above reason) so instead of availing myself of convenient parking, I have to drive around for a half hour to try and find something on the street that's not at a broken meter (illegal), in a tow zone (illegal) or will take so long to walk to/from my destination it will exceed the meter maximum time (illegal). One more reason to hate L.A. I guess. At least I don't go there more than once or twice a year.
