Parking disputes are often at the heart of neighbourhood drama, with tensions flaring over who leaves their car where. One baffled man found himself labelled a "bad neighbour" for simply requesting that his driveway remain unblocked.
He didn't own a car himself and was usually okay with other residents parking in front of the drive if the street was busy, especially as most of the considerate locals moved their car soon afterwards.
But, having recently moved into the property, he had arranged for some renovations and wanted the space for "access for the lads doing the work." However, one stubborn neighbour had started to regularly leave his vehicle in the way, often for days at a time.
The homeowner at first left a note on the offending car, but this was ignored. And when he was finally able to confront the driver, he was met with an angry response, The Mirror reports.
The issue escalated to the point where the frustrated resident felt compelled to involve the council, which promptly dispatched a warden. Unfortunately, by the time the inspector arrived, the vehicle had conveniently been moved.
Seeking advice, the man turned to Reddit, asking: "Would you park in front of someone's driveway if they don't own a car?"
