Furious neighbour gets revenge on driver parking in their space for THREE YEARS after they ignored sign

7 months ago 40

A raging neighbour finally got revenge on a driver who had been parking in front of their house for three years.

Video footage showed a black Kia being towed away from the property, where it had been left directly in front of a 'no parking' sign.

A 30-minute clip of the incident was shared to YouTube by the towing company Everything Auto, who turned up to remove the car on behalf of the complainant.

The footage, which included audio of the phone conversation between the company and the Kia driver, has quickly racked up more than 123,000 views and over 800 comments.

On camera, a worker is seen attaching the car to the back of a tow truck, ready to be pulled away.

This is the moment a raging neighbour finally got revenge on the driver who had been parking in their space for three years - despite there being a clear sign that said they couldn't

Meanwhile, another pans the camera to show the bright red and black 'no parking' sign that the property owners had erected.

She told viewers: 'There's a 'no parking' sign right there. There's the car. The property owner has asked us to remove it, so that's what we're doing.'

The duo proceeded to tow the car away and share an audio snippet of the phone conversation the company later had with the car owner.

The Kia driver had called to find out why his car had been taken and the worker responded: 'Yeah, it was parked on the neighbour's property'.

But the driver argued: 'That's my house there. I do live there and also I do not have a parking space to put it'.

A female voice chimed in with: 'He's lived there for a while and he's parked there for well over a year'. 

'I've been living here for three years,' confirmed the irritated driver.

Explaining the situation, the worker responded: 'The property owner has said that we needed to remove it. They don't want anybody parking on their property anymore.

'They've even put up a sign and you guys parked right in front of the sign.'

The driver replied: 'Yeah because I've got no space right now, I have one more car. Where should I park it? My car doesn't fit in the garage because it's too long'.

The back and forth continued for a while and the Everything Auto worker suggested the driver pay to rent a parking space of his own and he agreed he would need to think of a solution.

Speaking to viewers after the exchange, the worker laughed: 'Come on guys, I mean, if you don't have enough room on your property, it doesn't mean that you can park on somebody else's'.

Comments on the YouTube video penned: 'The entitled nature of some people is just awe inspiring' and 'I love when they say 'I've been illegally parking for years' lol'.

A third quipped: ' I find the 'Where am I supposed to park my car?!?' to be verybizarre logic. Maddening.'

'I've parked illegally there for years, other people OWE it to me, to let me park for free.,' joked another.

Although this specific incident took place in the US, in the UK, it's not illegal to park outside someone's house if a parking space is available on a public road - even if it's directly in front of your house, anyone is allowed to park in it. 

Any member of the public can park there as long as it is not a designated space or a road that's governed by residents' parking permits. 

However, despite being legal, it is deemed generally unacceptable, and police action can be taken if the vehicle is preventing you from getting off your own driveway - you can report this as anti-social behaviour.
