Are you passive or not? Would this bug you? - Page 3

To answer your bolded part in your second post, Shorty, yes, it would bother me. It would REALLY bother me that my neighbors were so inconsiderate, and it would also bother me (much less, but still bother me), that my husband wouldn't address it with them. I understand that you can't move. Hopefully you can speak to the neighbors and work out something. Sorry they are such jerks!

I don't know what the law in in your area but where I live a car cannot be parked in the same spot more than 72 hours. Law enforcement will ticket the vehicle then tow it if it hasn't been moved.

I would stay calm. Now days, I would be afraid what someone might do to you and your husband.

Yes, this type of thing would bother me but the best thing to do is treat them with kindness.

Maybe they do things because they know that it bothers you.

Have you watched "Fear Thy Neighbor"?

If the neighbor's junk car is truly junky and they don't drive it very often remove the tags then report it as an abandoned car.

Are you serious? Sorry can't tell.

I think she's serious because this actually works.

OK thanks. It sounds to me like vandalism and making a false police report, that's why I asked. I guess I am missing something.

You're welcome. I've read a lot of cases where people who've stored cars on their property for friends or family, and asked them repeatedly to come and remove their property. After months or years and no removal, they either drive it or have it taken to a public road without tags and then call the police.

But, it's not on her property, it's on the road. If the car is legal to drive the police can't do anything and, you can't just go take somebody's tags off their car. That is illegal, it's theft. She'd be the one getting in trouble, not the owners of the car. What a silly idea.

Shorty, So sorry you are having to deal with this....reminds me of my DD and SIL , they have a similar problem, and also at my Dads house which I now own and rent out. My DH is the same. He would let it go, and it would really bug me. I also keep finding Cigarette butts in my yard, and I thought it was the pool guy, I confronted him and he insists he doesn't smoke...so I do not know who is doing it. It's really sad there there are people who are so rude .I feel bad for you.

OK, it seems to bother YOU, way more than it bothers him..I say let it go..As my Nana used to tell me with a ewink.."Not everyone can be prefect like US!"

You could call it in if their car is on your bumper. That's not legal. I'm assuming they have legal tags on the clunker car. If it were me I would park your car on the street leaving room for only one more car. Let your husband use the driveway since he works.
If they park on your bumper - take pics and report it.

I kept an old truck for years that I only drove in bad weather just so people couldn't park in front of my house, yes it bugs me a lot, especially when they park on my grass.

I also have new neighbors that parked at the very edge of their driveway so I couldn't get my truck in or out of my driveway. I finally called him over and explained I couldn't get out of my driveway. I said I have a big truck and you have a truck and I would hate to have to start parking on the street just so I could leave and then no one else could get down the street, especially the trash trucks. I would have done it too.

He has since moved further down so I can get out, but I still have his loud souped up pipes on his truck that I have to deal with morning, noon and night since I don't think he works much. Sounds like a motorcycle in my bedroom. They are illegal pipes but I am saving that one for a different time. He also races up and down the street. Not everyone can pick up and move!

They have a friend that comes over and parks at the end of their driveway, huh! I waiting for the time I need to leave when that happens. I'll probably kick it into 4 wheel drive and move it myself.

No, it doesn't and good luck not being seen trying to scrape off the tags..
