Default People who should know better

If you park your car in someone else's driveway, knowing full well that person has a towing contract, do you not assume the risk of having your car towed?

*insert yes answer here*

Then, why would a person who does this have the audacity to pound on my door at 7:30 a.m. when his car gets towed?

Is it because
  1. they are retarded
  2. they feel the need to complain about something that was entirely their own fault
  3. think that you are the evil and want to see if you will stab them in the head for destroying your slumber
  4. all of the above

You decide.

(Background, in case you're wondering, for those who are not familiar with my property drama, is I've owned this end unit townhouse for about 7 years. I have had a towing contract in force since that date because people decide to park their cars wherever, including my lawn and my two private spaces. The one next door to me has a teenage son who likes to have parties while mom is away, so the next thing you know, you've got 4 full size cars and one SUV trying to squeeze in our combined 4 spaces, 2 each privately, leaving me with no place to park at all, since there is no on street parking, which why would I park on the street anyway. Everytime I've asked them to move, they cop attitude, so I decided to stop asking and just start towing. This morning at 4:13 one of their cars was towed so I could park. I can only imagine what he told his mom about where her car is. That kid pounded on my door from 7:30 until 9 a.m.)

And what sort of repercussions do you suspect I will face when I get home?

LOL that is funny. I would do the same thing if I was in your shoes. BTW if at all possible make sure you tow the parents cars and leave the kids car. That will get his parents wondering what the heck is going on here.

4, If you do get repurcussions let us know, especially if it is on your car. I have been wanting to go on a roadtrip through NC, since I moved away. haha

Well, although there are exceptions, most gp owners are cool and would probably ask before doing so and then offer you a beer, soda, or water. Insert your poison there. hahah

I have no trespassing/private property signs up all over the place. This particular household I have told on numerous occasions that I have a towing contract. You would think that would be the end of it, especially after asking them nicely and getting nothing but attitude about it.

I wish some heavily modded GTP would park there. At least one with better tires that would fit on mine.
