Why!? Seriously, why do so many passengers slam my doors. It is so infuriating. What do you do to avoid this? Do you say something or stay quiet for fear of getting docked stars?

I feel like there is no way to prevent this without putting up a sign on your door/window or saying something - and in both cases it might come across the wrong way...
I wonder if there is some psychology trick you can play here. Like... put a big picture of a cute puppy on the door, to subconsciously trick people into treating it more gently.
Cars really need a "soft close" option, like Ikea drawers have... That would be nice.
Some doors just close way easier than others...you don't mean to slam them but when you use the same force as you might on another car the doors just sorta slam...
