We discussed the possibilities in another thread. I really don't think the car was just parked - yes the lights are on, but a decent battery will last fir a few hours, even longer if there was gas in the car and the engine was left running.
Also, Duck hears a noise, and Kenny says "it [the noise] sounds like a car". This means the noise is on going. It can't be the sound of the car driving and parking, because the car had no gas, and the engine did not even turn over when Lee tried the keys (perhaps maybe because the battery had drained from having the lights left on?). The noise was most likely the car's "open door" or "key's in the ignition" indicator.
We do know that the car was abandoned hastily - it's even possible that, when they left, they intended to return. However, it wasn't recently abandoned, and the longer it was from the time they left, the less likely it is that they will be able to return. And I think the time was probably longer rather than shorter.
