Scenario:\nTwo cars are parked on the line such that they truncate a very good parking space between them.  Someone later manages to fit a car into the middle spot without hitting them or the lines.\nQuestion:\nWho has more grounds for complaint - 1. The person who had to squeeze into the middle spot or walk a longer way or 2. the person who parked on the line, when they come back and have to figure out how to get into their car?\n\nSomeone left a nasty note on my car today, and I wasn't the one on the line.  I just thought THEY were the ones that needed the note.  What would you say?

That whole uppitier-than-thou attitude of "They have to stop!" that many pedestrians (even pedestrians who normally drive and get just as irritated when they're the ones behind the wheel) have drives me nuts.  They cross against lights, or cross in the middle of the road, or amble instead of hurry when the light's already changed, fully believing that it doesn't matter that what they're doing is illegal, or at the minimum highly annoying.\n\nI would never actually hit anyone, but I might have, once or twice, popped my shifter into neutral and revved my engine threateningly.\n\nMaybe.

how long has this been? ... is she a missing person? \nshe disappears (oops moves) and even though you owe her money, you don't know how to contact her? \nthat doesn't sound right to me. \n\ncheck with the DMV though, a woman I know had a car left on her property and was able to get the title by declaring that to them.

Signs at the enterances of the parking area saying "Parking In Designated Areas Only.  Landlord Is Not Responsible For Any Damages"  should do the trick.  \n\nDirect the people who's car gets hit to their vehicles to take the matter up with the individual who hit their car.  Offer to call the police on their behalf (be sure to detain them so they can't move the evidence).

It would help if you posted details regarding your complaint.  Is it lagging maintainence issues?  Late rent fees?  Not enough parking spaces?   How you deal with a complaint really depends on what the complaint is.

Just have her car towed, which is your legal right to do so, and if that doesn't teach her keeping doing it.  I'm sure you will also make a new friend (the tow company)

He has the right to block you in so you can't go anywhere.  If you were going to turn the car over yourself, you should have done that before the repo man got there.  There was nothing wrong with him unlocking the door, putting the car in park, or taking the keys since the car and the keys belong to the bank that hired him to repo the car.  Since you were refusing to get out of the vehicle yourself, he should have called the police.  They could have forced you out of the car.  Maybe you should just consider yourself lucky that the police were not involved.  If you didn't want these things to happen, you should have paid the money that you owe.

I would think the best way to handle it would be to simply ask her to move her car (without it being strongly worded). Explain the situation -- Excuse me, ma'am, but your car is blocking the drive-in. Would you mind moving it? Being non-confrontational in your wording -- ie no curses, nothing too strongly worded, no insults -- is often a more effective (not to mention polite) way to acheive your goal.\n\nAnd if she refuses, then involve the manager. The manager will doubtless not want to lose the customers trying to get to the drive-in and rental kiosk and speak to the woman again.\n\nAnd if all else fails -- just have patience. Wait inside away from the fumes if they're bothersome.

Wow - this is the "Hey Jude" of questions - it never end, and it may be the longest question I've ever answered. Anyway, one of my pet peeves ia when people or businesses misuse quotation marks (For instance, in a restaurant - Try "Our" Famous Clam Chowder, or "Try" Our Famous Clam chowder, or even Try Our Famous "Clam" Chowder.\n  Secondly, of course is BAD DRIVERS!!  Drivers who don't signal, go under the limit, or who pull out in front of you at the last minute.\n  In an unrelated area, though, I would like to comment upon your apparent negative feelings toward women.  It sounds as though you have been hurt and are carrying some anger about that.  I would address those issues or your anger can make you a very unhappy person.  Good luck!

I have to disagree with those who say 'just pay it'. If you feel you are in the right, then why should you? The truth is that for the vast majority of private parking contractors, its simply not worth the effort of taking people to court over such a relatively small sum of money, so while you will receive the odd threatening letter, the chances of them actually doing anything about it are somewhere between miniscule and zero. \n\nMany of these private car parks issue tickets at the drop of a hat: having one wheel outside the marked bay, for example, when its almost impossible to squeeze a large car into their miniscule bays..... I drive an Alfa 164. I'm absolutely buggered if I'll pay in the face of such quasi-legal extortion, and I urge everyone to refuse to do so as well! Central Parking Systems, who administer parking at many South Eastern railways stations, have a habit of putting faint outline markings down in spaces where another car could easily be parked, and then issuing tickets to anyone who parks there. \n\nRight, rant over! :)

If you want to be charged for a hit and run, then by all means, drive away without telling someone. You are not at any criminal fault for sliding into a stop sign. By law, anytime you have a collision with another car, a person, or any property, you have to stop and provide your information. \n\nIn the case of a street sign, the police would be the proper people to call. If you get in a minor fender bender, you only have to provide your info to the other driver, but you can call the police if you want.

The slope belongs to whoever the ticketing officer says it belongs to.  I'm not trying to be funny, it's just the way it is.  If it got towed it must have been there quite a while or actually been blocking the driveway enough to cause someone to complain.\n\nYou can take pictures and fight, but without proof (you'd have had to take pictures BEFORE the car got towed) you might not have any chance.  If you do fight it in court, just showing up might enable you to negotiate to onl pay half of the fines, though.\n\nGood luck!

I always do, because its annyoing when there is a spot but a cart or two is in the way....they also roll and damage cars (victim of this). It's lazy people who don't, and that's annoying. And those who are saying its not laziness, then why don't you put yours away?

Why should they be liable? The person that hit your car is liable. No different then if you were parked on the street. The lot is selling you a parking place not a insurance policy on your car.

It isn't a handicap ONLY stall, it is a handicap accessible stall.  It is unlike a handicap parking spot that is reserved ONLY for those that are handicapped.  Therefore, they are open game if there is no other stall available.  I have used them, but not if another is available.  Could you imagine how bad you would feel if someone in a wheelchair was waiting for you to get out of a stall??

Imagine this scenario:\n\nYou're in a shoe shop, second in the queue for the till.\n\nBehind the shop assistant on the till is a pair of shoes which you have seen and which you must have.\n\nThe female shopper in front of you has seen them also and is eyeing them with desire. Both of you have forgotten your purses.\n\nIt would be totally rude to push in front of the first woman if you had no money to pay for the shoes. The shop assistant remains at the till waiting.\n\nYour friend is trying on another pair of shoes at the back of the shop and sees your dilemma. She prepares to throw her purse to you. If she does so, you can catch the purse, then walk round the other shopper and buy the shoes.\n\nAt a pinch she could throw the purse ahead of the other shopper and, whilst it is in flight, you could nip around the other shopper, catch the purse and buy the shoes.\n\nAlways remembering that until the purse had actually been thrown it would be plain wrong to be forward of the other shopper.\n\n\nDoes that help?

First, keep that note. \nSecond, you cannot be held responsible for cars parked on the public street. Thats really not the landlords business even if they are yours.\nThird, ask to have a conference with the people complaining about the noise. This will show your intent on being fair. Then complain when you do hear thier domestic squabbles and when the children bother you and/or your husband.
