Someone is in ‘my’ parking space
Someone is in ‘my’ parking space
I live in a quiet part of my city on a street with plenty of parking. Many of the houses have one or even two car driveways/garages so there is enough parking that I don’t need to park far, but the spot directly in front of my house has been occupied for WEEKS. There is nothing that makes that spot mine except that everyone sort of has their assigned spots like seats in the cafeteria. This person has a resident pass (though improperly affixed) so nothing is illegal but I’m sorta beginning to wonder if the car is abandoned.
There is absolutely nothing I can do about it except to hope that they move for street cleaning in another two weeks but it’s annoying and I wanted to vent. Anyone else experience this frustration?
AND, they are parked like shit and it feels like salt on the wound.
Edit: fixed a typo

If the tags aren't expired, and their parking doesn't violate any codes, just leave it alone. You don't own the road.
You may notice I said more than once there’s nothing to be done, but thanks for the advice anyway. Super helpful!
I disagree though, there is something to be done; an attitude adjustment on your part. As I said, you don't own the road. When you make a post, you have to be open to being in the wrong sometimes, or you're setting yourself up for inevitable disappointment.
All these other comments enabling your attitude are the real tragedy.
The thing is, he does own the road. And so do his neighbors, and the folks a few blocks over too. It's community property and there are rules put in place to ensure that everyone gets to use it fairly. Those rules probably include 'no parking on the street for days at a time'.
You're wrong, and your attitude is ridiculous.
