  • I live very near an elementary school. Parents of said school do all kind of illegal parking so they don't have to wait in line to pick up kids. A cop was present due to said parents doing things like driving in oncoming lanes, double, triple parking, blocking corners, fire hydrants and crosswalks. Guy lied to cop to get of ticket for driving around the cones to cut in the pickup line. I think he was just chilling till the cop left so he could go get his child. That didn't work out for him since I asked him to move.

    To those of you who are criticizing the homeowner, perhaps you aren't old enough to realize that the driveway is the homeowner's property. Would you like it if some random person just parked their vehicle in your driveway, especially if it's a 1-2 car driveway? Probably not. Unless I know you, I don't want you parking right next to my home. For all the homeowner knew at first, the guy could have been trying to break-in. He did the right thing by confronting the man and then calling police. He didn't get all pissed off and start a fist fight. Everyone on our street has been robbed at least once, except us, because we have been vigilant. For crying out loud, if you think you must park in an area of which you aren't a resident, park in the street (if it is public, as some streets are in fact private), unless the homeowner gives you permission to use their driveway. It's SIMPLE common COURTESY, something most of you seem to lack. Some people are too damn ignorant, think they are better than everyone else (and entitled), and lazy.

      Luxury. I had to drag myself to school over broken glass with my one good stump. Over cliffs leaning towards me in both directions. When I got to school our teachers would shoot us. Then when we got home we were treated to a snack of sulfuric acid and carpet tacks before we had to go out and lick the road clean with our tongues. Then our mum and our dad would beat us to death every night. And you try and tell the kids today how hard you had it, and they won't believe you!

    I had to tow at least 6 cars from a reserved parking spot I was paying for while living at my mother's in a trailer park. One night I come home after class and the guy is still at his car, so I went to confront him. Apparently, the atittude I have toward people illegally parking in the spot I pay a monthly fee for makes me an asshole, but the fact that he shouldn't be parked there in the first place is somehow irrelevant. Many people are self-centered assholes and aren't concerned with the needs of others.

    That happened to me once. I just parked my car behind him, got on the bus and went to the airport! Two weeks later when I came home the car was still there! When he turned up to claim it I charged him £50 for parking. The policeman who called when he refused to pay had trouble holding back his laughter! A prominent but unreacheable camera helped too! He did a lot of waliking those two weeks. The policeman discovered it was a company car that the man needed for his job! I wondered what he told his boss and if it agreed with what the police told his boss!

    I've come home to find people parked in my driveway a few times, I always just park behind them blocking them in. Then head inside and call a tow truck out. Once I had the owner knocking on my door yelling and screaming for me to move my car, so I calmly told him that I would happily move my car for the tow truck when it arrived, and if he didn't get off my property I would call the cops. He kept threatening me and carrying on even with the cops on the phone.
    Long story short he was charged with several serious offences, a hefty tow/impound fee, plus court costs and damages.

    • @Nekulturny
      @Nekulturny 5 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      I actually found the letter, I don't know if you care, but you felt like sharing a story, I felt like sharing one.. Enjoy if you want:
      Rob,
      I do not know who left this note on my car; feel free to redirect this response to whomever did or authorized the leaving of this note on my car. For the record, I did not write the handwritten response on your note, nor do I know which fellow tenant of mine did. But I agree with them. The only reason I parked my car that way in the first place was because the lot was full and half of the lot was blocked by YOUR STRAIGHT TRUCK. Quite frankly, you have some god damn nerve to leave that note on my vehicle considering your inconsiderate attitude caused the situation in the first place. I work nights, in a warehouse, I come home after hours of heavy lifting, sweating aching and stinking, I don’t want to have to hunt for a place to park, I shouldn’t have to go find you to move the fucking truck.
      Now I have lived here to date, 2 years and 2 months, and I have endured certain things, for starters yesterday was not the first time I have come home from work and found nowhere to park, granted its not always because of [business name redacted]'s truck, I admit that. However, there are numerous things I have dealt with over the past 2 years that usually trace back to the family members of somebody you keep in your employ. These things I have dealt with include having nowhere to park because of your employee’s family’s houseguests. I didn’t say anything last summer when there was another similar smartassy note left on our dumpster about being adults and cleaning up after ourselves. This note was posted not one week after I watched your employee bring an entire truck load of his personal trash and put in that dumpster the very morning it was emptied by the trash company.
      I did not say anything when I was keeping trash in my apartment which potentially could attract vermin because the dumpster was always full because the neighborhood seems to think it’s a public dumpster. I haven’t said anything about the electronic shit that sits behind the dumpster that probably the EPA would take great issue with considering the mercury and lead that computer equipment contains that sitting out for months at a time exposed to the elements. I haven’t said anything about the roaches we’ve occasionally had to deal with, which primarily as someone who has an educational background in PC repair myself, knows how much roaches love computer towers, that’s where they keep coming from.
      Several months ago, I had 2 books shipped via the postal service; somehow they were delivered to your store despite the mail carrier having access to the building. Don’t know where those books went, the postal service opened a case and swear up and down that GPS tracking the carriers use as well as their own notation say they were delivered to the store. That’s money I’m out. I didn’t raise a fuss about it.
      I’ve had soda poured on my car; I’ve been woken up at 3am by the Jerry Springer episodes that take place frequently around here. I had a BB shot through my kitchen window 48 hours after I called the police regarding the aforementioned…. that I’m 99% sure based on trajectory points of the screen and a higher hole in the actual glass points down straight to that particular back yard. Incidentally, around the same time I noticed the hole in the kitchen window one my cats had a nick in his ear and dried blood, now I don’t know if one of my other cats did that, or if someone in that house or someone related to that house shot at one of my cats or not. I can’t prove it, but all of these things I tolerate, but I’m getting to the end of what I’m willing to put up with.
      By the way, I rent a 2 bedroom, even though it’s just me, I have 2 parking permits, I only use 1. My stepbrother has several “beater” cars, I could take another spot if I so desired, I’m sure he’d lend me one.
      Like my fellow tenant said on that note, we live here, you only work here. Keep that in mind, and while you’re keeping that in mind, do not ever put a note on my vehicle again, in fact keep your hands off my vehicle entirely. If you have any issues with me, direct them to [property manager's names redacted] I will do my absolute best to steer clear of you and you should do the same. I will have all packages from Fedex or UPS held for pickup at their terminals. If I do happen to miss one, please feel free to refuse delivery.
      Cordially,
      [my name redacted]

      Oh, just another side note and background, the likely justification for why they put that note on the dumpster was because that same employee mentioned in the letter. I was on my way to the doctor, I had a really bad case of bronchitis and pleurisy, it took 2 rounds of antibiotics to knock out, doxycylene didnt work, I had to go on Levaquin and prednisone- levaquin in particular has a lot of nasty side effects all on its own). The dumpster was completely packed, and I just said fuck it and put the bag in front of the dumpster (I had carried it down on my way out the door), and that employee of the store tried to argue with me about the trash bag. I could barely breathe, but I managed to get out a good loud "mind your own fucking business". If I was healthier at the time, it probably would have come to blows.

      +CrazyBear65, your name checks out. Crazy as hell. Someone parking on your property temporarily isn't even an offense, let alone one that justifies shooting someone.
      If someone parks, and you don't like it, you can tell them to leave. If they don't leave, it's criminal trespassing. That's it. If you use violence, you are legally the aggressor, as it is INSANE to attack someone or threaten them with deadly force over being parked in your driveway.
      +Nofreebeer. The problem isn't people or PC crap. It's terrible engineers in certain cities, with bad public planning policy. Basically, cities allow new areas to be built without planning for parking, and then it's simply a mathematical fact that a certain number of incidents will occur each and every day. It's literally unavoidable.
      You can't legally drop your kids off to school super early (trespassing). You can't legally stop in the street (moving violation). You can't wait in line (fired from work). You can in some areas stop in a driveway legally (or it may be illegal in some jurisdictions). You are damned if you do, damned if you don't. There is literally no alternative, whatsoever.
      I don't live in such a state, and wouldn't. But the reality is that I've been in major cities with terrible engineers and city planners, and unfortunately the traffic situation is Hellish. There's nothing to be done about that by a lone driver.

    • @nofreebeer

      You still have to be audacious and lacking consideration to be parking on property that is not correlated to any of your daily activities. Still an issue of blatant disregard for other's property. Engineering is only part of the problem. It's called planning and scheduling on the parents part.

    • @catlover1986
      @catlover1986 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      +nofreebeer, what part of "no choice" did you not get? There is no "planning and scheduling" for many people. They have a job, they have to be there, and there's no flexibility on the part of the job, or the school. You can't drop your kid off early in many places, you can't drop them off late (you go to jail), you can't miss work for even a few minutes or you're fired.
      That's it. Sometimes maturity is accepting an imposition you don't like, because there's no practical alternative. If you are mad at the folks who are parking, then fire your city officials in the next election, and get someone competent.
      Where I live, we don't have these issues. That is because it is SOLELY an engineering question. These problems only occur when you put a gun to people's head, and give them no choice whatsoever.

      Richard Evans last time i heard from my sister the neighbor was going through a significant legal battle to try and finish off his garage, the company which originally built all the houses in that area were constructed with driveways for each property and a pre-designated spot on each property in which a garage could be built, the company left it up to individual home owners to construct garages to try and save costs, and because no owner had previously decided to build a garage in that housing community the judge sided with the jealous neighbour in saying that a garage would "ruin the asthetic of the neighbouehood". It all just boiled down to one neighbours jealousy of another spending money on improving their own property and unfortunately in the country where my sister lives once such a case is lost in court then its an almost impossible task to regain permission to continue work. That said the garage was nearly completed, all the walls were up all that needed doing was putting up the roof and the garage door, he ended uo putting a tarp for his roof and uses it as a semi open car port so his car is still kind of out of the weather.

    I don't know what the law is where you are but if you put up a sign that says "parking space for rent $1000 per hour, by parking here you agree to pay the parking fee, minimal rental 4 hours" then if they park there you can bill them, sue for the rental fee and you will get it. I arbitrarily said $1000 above but you can claim any amount you want. We had a flea market across the street from where I used to live and invariably I would get home from work on Saturday morning and find someone parked in my driveway and a cop told me he could not do anything at all. The process for having the car towed takes about six months. I literally would never get to park in my own driveway. But then he told me that if I put up a sign like the one above, and I recorded when they parked there then I would be able to sue and collect. I didn't believe him at first but I made a sign announcing the $1000 per hour parking fee and minimum four hour rental for the space. I also added that by parking in that space the renter agreed to forfeiting their vehicle on the spot if the bill isn't paid. Sure enough my first customer pulled in my spot at 7 in the morning and I got home in 1 in the afternoon so he owed me $6000. So I parked my car in the street in front of my driveway blocking possible exit from the driveway. I waited in a chair on my lawn with a cell phone in hand until 5 in the afternoon making it a $10,000 rental. My video surveillance was had recorded the entire day so I could show it to the police. When the guy came to pull out of my driveway he started screaming obscenities. He wanted to know whose car was blocking his exit. I told him it was the person who owned the parking space he agreed to rent. He claimed he didn't agree to any such thing. So I showed him the sign which he claimed wasn't there when he pulled in. Then I showed him the video of me putting up the sign the day before. I told him I had him on surveillance arriving at 7. It was now five and he owed my a $10k parking fee for the day. I told him he could have his car when he paid the bill. He became combative. I called the police who came and the police told the gentleman that they could do nothing and that it was within my right to have the vehicle towed and that it was within my right to place a lien on the car for the parking fee which is what I did. The guy again became combative and so the cops arrested him. Then I called the town impound and ordered a tow. I pointed out the sign in my driveway, filled out the lien paperwork and the impound vehicle towed the vehicle out of my driveway. All I had to do was get the paperwork notarized which I since my neighbor is a notary. Since they had been parking in his driveway blocking him from pulling out he was happy to notarize the form for free. I filed a copy with the impound lot and another copy with the town code enforcement division and that was it. He was to get the car back when he paid the tow, impound fees and my lien. He sued me and lost. The car was worth $7000. He had to pay $5000 in his lawyers fees. He had to pay $2500 in my lawyers fees. He had to pay $1200 in court costs. He was ordered to pay my $10,000 parking fee and he still owed the impound lot. He refused to pay any of that so... I ordered his vehicle auctioned and got $7000 for it. I paid the towing and my legal fees and impound fees out of that. There was a little over $2000 left over after all of that. His lawyer ended up suing him and the court issued a bench warrant and put him in jail for contempt for refusing to pay court costs. The court ended up garnishing his wages. His lawyer ended up garnishing his wages. Since he still owed me $8000 I filed in court for a lien for that and additional court and legal fees on his home. Six months later he sold his house and had to pay me the balance of the $8000 out of the sale of the house because his buyer wouldn't complete the sale until he did or the buyer would have had to pay me. Either way I got paid, paid my income tax and cleared about $7000. The story made the local newspaper and every house on the street put up similar signs. Several of my neighbors also made some money off the jerks who kept illegally parking in their driveways.
    A year after all this happened the flea market sent letters to everyone in the neighborhood requesting that they discontinue price gouging on our parking fees and saying that it was unfair to their customers that they should have to pay such ridiculous fees to park in people's driveways. About a dozen of us including me took our letters to the manager's office at the flea market and told him where he could put the letters. Then he threatened to sue us. We invited him to try. But we ended up going to the mayor's office instead and requested that the flea market's business license be revoked for creating a nuisance. The city code enforcement instead threatened to take the flea market by eminent domain and turn it into a town park and by state law they would only have to pay the owner a fraction of fair market value if it was turned into open space use rather than commercial. .
    Another case, there is an elementary school next door to my former bank. Every week I would go there to transact business but one day I pulled into the parking lot and there was not a single parking space to be had. I pulled in line at the drive through teller and they told me that happens when school gets out and that I would have to come back another time. I had to access my safe deposit box and then I had to go to work so there was no other time. So I parked my car blocking the exit and went inside the bank to find not a single customer inside. At that point I said they need to prevent the school's parents from blocking access to my own bank or I would have to change banks. They claimed they could do nothing so I closed my account, removed the contents from my box and went outside to find about fifty very irate parents and two cops. I explained things to the cops and pointed out the signs prohibiting non bank customers from parking and told them I was the only person present with the right to be in the parking lot in the first place and that all the parents were preventing me from transacting necessary business at my own bank. The cops declined to issue me a ticket. So I left and never returned having closed my accounts. I drove past that bank at the same time of day a few weeks later and found the parking lot empty and parents double parked all up and down the street with about a dozen cops trying desperately to direct traffic. I later read in the paper that the school had closed it's rear parking lot which is where the parents used to park. They instead converted the space into a school playground leaving the parents no place to park so they flooded into neighboring businesses virtually shutting down the whole neighborhood for over an hour every day when school was in session. So what did the town do to eliminate the problem? They constructed the new middle school two blocks away on the same street and did it WITHOUT a parking lot and included in the plan that parent parking would be by street only. I moved out of state before that school was completed. My former neighbor informs me that traffic and parking is a nightmare every morning and every afternoon and that kids usually get home from school around five in the afternoon and that last winter some kids didn't get home from school until 7 at night.
    If someone is blocking your driveway or using it illegally, you can usually blame poor town/city planning.

    A different story, but similar. I went camping in the Scottish highlands and misjudged my walking time to the next camp site. A heavy fog came down really fast and I got lost. I was tired and so thought, "Sod it, I`ll pitch my tent here." Put my tent up and went to sleep. Hours later I was shaken awake by this huge guy, who growled at me in a thick scots accent, "what the bloody hell do you think youre doing?" I replied, "Camping, what`s it to you mate?" he gave me a baleful stare, "I don't mind you camping, but not in my foking garden!" I looked out the tent and with the mist gone I realised that somehow I`d walked onto his huge front garden and pitched my tent without seeing his house a hundred metres away. "I`m sorry mate, I didn't see the bloody house!" he fixed me a look that went straight through me and for a moment I thought he was going to thump me. Then a huge grin split his features, "You`se bloody English are fooking crazy. Yee best come up to the house for a spot of breakfast." I had a real feast and a damn good laugh with him and his wife and daughter. They even drove me to the camp site later. Great people and a wonderful memory.

    When I first bought my house after a major snowstorm I shoveled out my driveway and I went to the store and when I came back a dude parked in my driveway. Being new to neighbor hood I don't know anyone's cars yet. Hoping they were watching I looked in the windows for mail even pulled. Up on door handle. Had to call police, cause I now had to park down the street with groceries to carry up a snow covered street. As soon as the police car arrived my next door neighbor came out. I asked. Why he didn't use his driveway and he said because he didn't want to walk thru the snow since he didn't shovel it yet. Nice start for a neighbor relationship

You make a comment about how uninvited people on your property is technically trespassing, & you will call the cops to remove trespassers if you feel safe, but it would be an "awful shame" (do a sarcastic exaggeration of those 2 words) if someone were to be mistaken as a burgler & shot because you felt threatened. Make exaggerated sad face after. 3. For good measure, tell them you think there are stray dogs looking for food in the area because you've found big scratches that look like animal clawing on your vehicle before & had to pay for your paint to be fixed.
      The person now thinks you're gonna damage their vehicle & maybe shoot them, but you haven't actually broken a law by threatening them. 😈

      The point is that extenuating circumstances exist. It's clear from the video that the city has failed to create an effective traffic/parking system, which is why someone feels the need to park there briefly. The reality is that poor city planning is to blame, and it has little to nothing to do with the guy parking.
      Something which often happens is that cities just don't care. They ban street parking, they have no building parking lots at their government owned facilities, and they just assume people will find some magic parking somewhere. In reality, there is no parking.

      +Su U, I understand what you're saying, but then the question becomes why a driveway is taboo, but blocking a public street isn't. Where I'm from, people tend to be pretty flexible. After all, people have a right to use your sidewalk (which you are required to have and maintain here), even to stand there for hours. Why would the driveway be so different? In fact, the front part of the driveway is arguably city controlled due to how easements work in many states, including mine. We often have police in our driveways and people will ask them to move, and the police say "the entrance to your driveway, is OUR driveway", because the city has control to the sidewalk.
      Basically, if someone isn't actively damaging your property, or committing a crime against you, why concern yourself? Why block a street when you can not block a street?

    I live close to an elementary school plus there are several bus stops for more schools on my street and every day durning the school year parents clog my street mostly waiting for the buses or their children to come from the school over the elevated crosswalk that keeps them off a very busy road. From about 2:30pm-5:00pm you can’t back out of your driveway because cars block it and use it to park behind your car and the road is so narrow with parents cars parked on both sides that it’s practically a one way street! Myself and the residents have gotten so mad that the start of each school year we call as many tow trucks as we can and have them wait on side streets for parents to leave their cars to go wait to greet the kids off the busses and crosswalk. Then it’s game on. The tow truck drivers have a field day hooking cars up left and right and towing them away. This past year the parents were prepared for us calling the tow trucks and called the cops instead to have the tow trucks leave them alone however it backfired epically. Cops ticketed the parents for blocking the driveways, and improperly parking cars on the road. The police really stepped up their game this year and as the year progressed the cars became manageable and peace has returned to the neighborhood. I think the school added more land and opened a large parking lot for the parents now.

    I came home one day and found an out of state cable tv truck parked in my driveway, he had the cones out and everything, I asked him why he was parked there and he said he could park anywhere he wanted to because his was a public utility company. I said the cable company is not public its private and so is my driveway. He by the way was working on my neighbors cable in the back of the neighbors yard. I told him he has a choice to make move it or I would have a towing company move it. After about 5 minutes he was gone and parked in my neighbor's driveway where he should have been in the first place.

      A guy parked in front of my driveway, saying, when I asked him to move it, there was no car on the driveway, which was true, because I did not have a car at the time.
      He could have blocked my neighbor's driveway. That is where he was visiting.

    I live out in the country and every so often my neighbor has a party and it does not bother me that his guest park at the fenced area in front of my property . One day I came home and three cars were in my driveway.( My drive way is 150 feet long at 16 feet wide) Someone having opened my sliding gate to gain access to park. I had all three towed away. So at about three in the morning some fool comes knocking on my door. I stayed awake as it was a weekend. I asked the person can I help you? He inquired about his car. I guess he was the first to leave the party. I told him that a salvage company came and picked it up as it was left abandoned on my property with no note as to whom it belong to. Told him that I do not remember what salvage company it was, the ad in phone book said that they hauled junk and scrap metals. I ask him to leave. He made the mistake of refusing demanding I return his car. I called the sheriff via 911 explained the situation on the phone and said there is a hostile person on my property uninvited. I had him arrested for trespassing. My neighbor came over later that morning to apologize. I told him it was not your fault your friends parked there it was their fault and they paid for their foolishness. Surprising how sober a drunk gets when put into handcuffs. I did tell my neighbor that the three cars towed were towed to pick a part auto salvage and wrecking. Never had an issue with people parking in my driveway since and now when there is a party neighbors friends ask if it is ok to park in front of the fenced area. Never saw the dumbass again that went to jail for the night either.

    Saw something like this on Judge Judy or People's Court once, where this chick always used to park (with permission) in her friend's driveway cause it was near the chick's work and so the chick wouldn't have to pay for parking. The friend moved without telling the chick, and the new people came home and saw a car they didn't know parked in their driveway. They waited for hours for the person to come back, didn't call the cops or a tow, but they had to park their car to go to an appointment and there was no on street parking, so they had no choice but to park in their OWN driveway, blocking in the stranger's car parked there. The chick gets back from work, BREAKS INTO THE HOUSE, grabs a spare car key, moves the car, gets her car out, moves the car back in the driveway and drives away, AND, to be even more of an ass, deliberately moves stuff around in the home so that the family will know someone was in their house. Then refused to admit it for over a year, even though she knew that the family was scared to death that someone had been in their home. So they sued her and won!

    When I lived in El Paso, I lived near the airport. Someone parked in my driveway and then left for vacation or whatever. Left their car in my driveway to not pay parking. LOL, I had them towed. I asked the driver what happens, he said they send a letter to the address the plates are registered to. A daily fee is applied and after two weeks, if the car isn't claimed or arraignments made, it would be auctioned off. I don't know what happened. It sat in my driveway for two days before I realized they left town, so I flattened the tires before I found a tow company to tow at their expense.

My brother lived a block away from one of the offices and he came home after an 18 hour day to find some one parked in his driveway. My bro had a BIG 4x Ford so he simply put it in gear and pushed the car down his driveway and behind his house and parked. He went inside, got a drink and sat on his porch and waited. Soon a guy was seen walking back and forth peering in all the driveways. Soon a cop came and my brother asked if they were missing a car. The guy wanted my brother arrested but the cop started to arrest the guy but my brother relented. Cop chewed the guy out good.

She had the nerve to tell her friend that it was ok to park on my families driveway next to my sisters car because it wasn't being used. When I came home I asked my dad who's car is this. He had no clue someone parked there. I knocked on the neighbors door and said that if this belonged to her friend that i need to park my car inside to please tell them to move it. She actually said "nah don't worry about it. It's ok we'll move it later." Lol I told her that's not her private property but my families private property. To move it now or I'll call the cops and the tow truck. She was actually trying to argue with me and I started calling the cops right in front of her and luckily some of her friends heard what was happening and told the person. Her friend moved it and got mad at her for not simply getting hin to just move it. He apologized to me and just went home when he saw that she was willing to get his car towed for an attempted to argue with me.

      Mari Mayn: It's not a public roadway. It belongs to the home owner, as part of his land, the only peope who can park are the owner, the owners family, and friends, with the owners permission. One major factor, in most countries, is that your insurance only covers you for driving, and parking, on public roads and your own driveway. As that car had parked without permission their insurance isn't valid so any damage sustained whislt parked there will be down to the driver to pay for, the insurance companies will wash their hands of any liability.

She couldn't get out; we have a huge palm tree in front, & she wedged further! Too funny!! She kept knocking on my door, screaming & calling me filthy names in Spanish, so even though I WAS going to let her out, I made a sandwich & sat on the porch laughing at her, drinking my sweet tea. She called P.D.; they said it's her fault & left! I didn't have to let her out. Good.
    Finally (after 2.5 hours) her husband came - what a nice guy!! He was decent, apologized, acknowledged she is a bitch, & said that's why he's considered divorce so many times over the years (told me quietly he had retained a lawyer & was going through with it this time, she is NUTS); he very politely asked me if I'd move, for him & the children. Why sure, I'd be happy to & I did! She drove off yelling, honking, waving the glorious 'bird of freedom' at me - I finished my sammich, shows over!!
    But...There have been several times I come home, someone is parked in my spot in front (perfectly legal), I ask (nicely) would they please pull up, go ahead & block the driveway while they're waiting, so I can park; 100% have been happy to!! I tell those people, "Hey, please feel welcome to park in front of our driveway any time, as long as you're gone before 6 p.m. when my daughter gets home from work" so they do!! We have so many really sweet people in Hollister... and a few arseholes!!!!

But you need a permit for your own residential street parking in several districts. Also, Eugene has apparently been sued and lost countless times for civil rights violations.
      I agree, it probably does happen in your city, but it isn't necessarily legal. We all know Oregon is a cluster fuck of a state anyway.

      As far as the city, it is insane. I also don't disagree that police are free to have illegally parked cars, towed away. I objected to the idea of arrest, which is pretty absurd in 99% of the country, but they apparently have special revenue laws in Eugene. I was pretty surprised going through the legal records, why would you guys want to live there?
      I live in Ohio. We have loose gun laws, loose parking laws, etc. We even banned red light and speed cameras at the state level because cities were abusing them. Now they can only have lights if an officer sits at the light, and signs off on tickets as they come in. VERY FEW cities are willing to do that, as they could just as easily pull people over and get more revenue (in Ohio, the tickets they can issue aren't points and have low fines)

      +Bulaw b., we aren't talking "life", we're talking about "law" and I know more about it than you ever will.
      You say "criminal trespass", but you're sorely mistaken. "Criminal" trespassing requires various conditions to be met. It's actually "simple trespass", the remedy for which is to ask someone to leave. Failure to leave would escalate to criminal trespass at that point. Failure to follow posted signage is criminal trespass.
      Again, criminal trespass requires you affirmatively violate someone's property rights AFTER being adequately warned off. There is no such presumption in driveways (unless you had perhaps a 600 foot long driveway and someone pulled all the way up at 2 AM with no articulable reason for doing so). The question is reasonableness under the law.
      A normal person would not find stepping off a sidewalk or stopping a driveway to be trespass of any type, and no law codifies that it is, therefore it is not. Again, if you ask someone to leave and they refuse, that's another animal. You could have the police come and issue a trespass notice, and then it would automatically be criminal trespass anytime they return.
      You cannot detain someone, by the way. Detainment is ONLY for people caught committing felonies. It's not a felony, so you would actually be "kidnapping" someone, and they would be authorized by law to defend themselves. Not a good choice.

    I haven't had anyone park in my driveway, but a neighbor was parking in front of my driveway and blocking me in. No problem because I have a motorcycle and I can ride down the sidewalk until I can turn onto the street. Because I didn't like him parking in front of my driveway, I called the police, and he got a ticket. The next day he parked in front of my driveway again, I called the police, and he got another ticket. The next day he parked in front of my driveway again, I called the police, and he got another ticket. The next day he parked in front of my driveway again, I called the police, and he got another ticket. After four tickets in four consecutive days, he got the message. I could have had his car towed, but I would have had to stay home from work until the tow truck arrived.

      Similar problem. I lived in London, in a large house split into six flats. I paid extra for the one off road parking space outside my front window. My street was the nearest to the station that was not residents only parking. I too had a motorbike but didn't see why I had to drive on the pavement so this guy could park blocking my entrance. He told me not to be a little s**t as it was a busy street. Told him I would have it removed. After that I bought an old mini for £200 and that was small enough to leave outside with room to get past on the bike.

    I got a friend who had a similar problem with parents using his driveway to park in.
    He does not mind too much, if they use his drive to turn around in, thats ok, but to park and then walk to get their kids while leaving the car in his driveway is simply too much.
    so, since he drives a raised 4x4, I told him to cement a couple of blocks into the driveway...
    He now has a driveway with a few rounded off blocks, but no cars use his driveway anymore.
    We recon that has cost these people a small fortune in exhausts, and we think at least one engine block due to the oil. LOL

      Simpler more elegant solution, if the owner isn't around. Take the core out of the valve stem. Lets all the air out of the tire, and then you can watch the fool trying to reinflate it only to have all the air come out again. Tools are pretty cheap on Amazon too.

My house and the neighbours are quite close together and the the only thing between them is my driveway. I park right behind the, leave a note on the windshield stating that I have parked and left for the evening so they can come back after 10am the next day to collect their vehicle. I also state that I have photographed their vehicle and license plate and should their be any damage to my property or they park there again I will have them towed.
    Generally they are fairly grumpy at first when they collect their vehicle in the morning. I then explain that I have done them a solid by not calling bylaw to have it towed which will cost them a minimum of $400.

    At a time all the residents ofFlorida had to renew their tags by the same date.

My bro had a BIG 4X pickup and after a long day at work he wasn’t in the mood to play. He put his truck in low and proceeded to push the Benz down the driveway and then parked and went inside. He got a beer and sat on his front porch. Soon a guy is walking up and down the street peering down the driveways but the truck blocked his view. When the cops were summoned Mike asked if they were looking for a Mercedes and told them where it was. The guy went berserk and wanted my bro arrested. Instead they wrote him a ticket and told him Mike could stay parked as long as he wanted and didn’t have to let him get his car back

This has gone on for a decade now, and recently, after having asked him nicely every time I have caught him doing this, I had him towed. BECAUSE IT IS ILLEGAL TO BLOCK A DRIVEWAY where I live. The day I discovered this city ordinance I took care of business. He has not said anything to me since, but he also no longer blows me off. Also, he now tells his drunk friends to not block my driveway access. No one even parks in front of my house any more. I love it. Sometimes you have to bully a bully back a little bit to get them to back off.
    Great video, and I hope you never have to come home to find some creep sitting up next to your home. If you do, park them in with your bumpers almost touching so that he cannot leave.

A few times I had people on 4-wheelers decide to joyride on my front lawn and chase my dogs. When I told them to GTFO my property & leave my dogs alone, they flipped me off and continued trying to run my dogs over with their 4-wheelers. didn't stop until one of them got a tire shot out with an M-14.

      Or maybe they think that a thumbs down on the video means "I hate that the guy parked in someone else's driveway!"

    I used to live near a school (as in the school was at the bottom of the road), and someone parked in our driveway, my mum blocked her in, she knocked on the door and asked my mum to move her car so she could go home. My mum told her she was about to walk the dogs, so she would have to wait. An hour and a half later we came back to find she had gotten a taxi home. My mum was off for the weekend after that. But her car stayed put. The woman hat to wait till monday to get it back.

    I have cameras set up all around my house. its nice to see whats going on at home and in the neighborhood when your away. im working on buying a couple more to install inside the house.

      Lakario, before you get cameras for the inside, remember what happened to Aaron Hernandes. I’m not saying you’re doing anything shady, but if you happen to dabble, the footage from the cams can be subpoenaed and used as evidence against you. If anything, just cover the points of entry, but not the living areas. You should be good with that. Have a good one, man.

      It is illegal to film the neighborhood with your cameras. You can be arrested for that in all 50 states. Limit your surveillance to your own property.

    I used to be obnoxious - not the loveable person I am today. I had a company car I parked in a marked (for that car) slot in a small garage under our office building. One day I came in and stopped. There was a car in my spot. I parked on the street, went up to my office, got a screwdriver, and took off the license plate of the offending car. I left a large note on the windshield telling the driver where to go to get his license plate back. A very embarassed man showed up in due course and got his plate back.Since stealing someone's plate is probably a felony, I told him the plate had fallen off and I - concerned for his welfare - had secured it and kept it safe for him. I never saw him again.

    • @rustynail2783

      After removing the plate I would have simply reported it as abandoned and let the cops deal with it.

    • @miriambucholtz9315
      @miriambucholtz9315 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That just reminded me of something that happened several years ago when I was managing apartment buildings. This idiot parked in out lot (despite signs warning him not to) and told me he'd leave the car there as long as he pleased. I told him, fine, you do that and I'll remove your license plates and call the cops and report the car as abandoned. The look on his face was priceless, as was the fact that he never came near the place again.

    I live about a block away several bars and restaurants. Parking in my neighborhood is scarce at best. If you don't have a driveway, you're screwed. so as a result, many of our driveways are routinely blocked and/or invaded by an intrusive and inconsiderate driver. Which is why many of us have private towing companies on speed dial. Their response time is much faster than law enforcement. Plus, it is so entertaining to watch these morons' reactions to return to retrieve their cars only to find it missing.

      Look closer at the video. You can see the homeowner come up the sidewalk, spot the car in his driveway, turn around and disappear, then return and approach the driver. He obviously reported the driver to the police before approaching the driver.

    Neighbour a few houses down had a party one day, and the cars parked on the street, blocking in everyone's driveways. And I'm talking like 30 cars lining both sides of the street. Yeah, a lot of tickets were issued that day, some cars towed, and a lot of angry people because their party was ruined because of us, the neighbours.

      Aleister Blacke In my older fan demure neighborhood, I knocked on EVERY DOOR down our street and behind us, explained that my 13 year old was having a Halloween party in our garage and asked kindly to be called if the noise was too much or any other party related problem. They were all very gracious about it, so after the party, all of he kids picked of every bit of litter up and down the street. ( it looked better after the party than before.) sometimes communication and consideration goes a long way. BUT THEN I’M NOT AN ENTITLED SNOWFLAKE!!!!

    • @aleisterblacke
      @aleisterblacke 5 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      there's a difference between letting your neighbours know, and cars just lining the block, blocking everyone's drives so they can't get in or out of their driveways, people pissing in your bushes, beer cans thrown everywhere, fights, people passed out on yards, etc.

    • @docgumbo4979

      Aleister-I am a bit embarrassed to say that when Mardi Gras comes and people begin to block the drives and yards, I have, on occasion, made use of yellow crime scene tape and surrounded my property with it. 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫

      @@docgumbo4979 I did that when I turned 18, told the neighbours that I'd be having a party and I hope there won't be any noise and I'll try to keep it down. His response? "You're turning 18! I'll be very suspicious if I don't hear anything! HAVE A GREAT TIME!!!"
      I think common courtesy goes a long long way, and as long as it's not often, I think most neighbours are understanding and more than happy to accommodate. But maybe I've just lived in decent places.
