Imagine having the audacity to ask your neighbor if you might park your car in their single driveway, blocking access to their garage and private property. Then you’re told “No” over and over, only to go ahead and do it anyway? That’s just another level of arrogant, entitled craziness.
When you don’t get along with your neighbors, things can go sour quickly. No matter how long you have lived in your home or location, you will meet many neighbors, and once these neighbors moved in, here your nightmare begins!
A mother of two took to Reddit to tell how she ended up towing her neighbor’s truck after they parked in her driveway on a regular basis.
She said the family with whom she is at odds moved in next door around six months ago, and at first, ‘they were cordial, and I was thrilled to have such good people move in next door,’ she added.
When the father came over and asked if his 16-year-old son could park his truck on her driveway since it was too huge to fit on theirs and would otherwise block the roadway, things got a little tense.
The Reddit user declined, and her father accused her of being unfriendly, but she said she didn’t want to be responsible for another person’s vehicle on her property. That’s a valid answer as far as I know.
In the event of this heated conversation, she said she told her neighbor: “I’m sorry you don’t have enough parking for all your vehicles, I’m sure it’s frustrating, but it’s not my problem that you decided to buy a vehicle that didn’t fit your property.”
But the situation did not end there; a few days later, the mother was filled with rage when she discovered the truck had been parked on her driveway, preventing her access.
Continuously reminding her neighbors’, she told them: “He is not allowed to park in my driveway. No one is allowed to park in my driveway and if I find an unauthorized vehicle parked in my drive-way again – I’m not going to bother to knock on your door – I’m going to have it towed!”
The mum said the 16-year-old son then moved the truck, but she overheard him calling her a ‘b***h’ as he did so.
They didn’t seem to believe her warnings, because the vehicle was soon parked on the drive – partially on the grass, in fact – and the Reddit user stated she was’so upset I couldn’t see straight.’
The truck was towed away within an hour after she called a 24-hour towing agency.
The next morning, her neighbors accused her of stealing and called the cops immediately. Little did they know that the police already knew everything. It backfired when the officer discovered the vehicle was parked on her property, prompting her to file a trespassing report.
Although this case did not result in anything, the mother stated that there were some positives to come from all of the neighbourly squabbles.
First and foremost, the neighbors purchased a smaller truck so that they could park on the street, which she regarded as a ‘victory.’
Second, the dispute drew her closer to one of her older neighbors.
