Not sure. Hadn't considered it at all but keep being told I should to cover my back in case of any come back
Today I went to my dentists, it's in a private house on a residential street, has a small car park out front ie on its drive. On arriving, there were a few spaces, no problems. (in the past I'll park out on the street if it looks full..so I hit lucky today)
When I came out it was a different scenario. My car was about 70/80% blocked in, as a car had parked length ways behind the back of my car (ie it wasn't in a designated space - unlike mine)
I know..I should have gone back in and enquired as to whose car it was. However I gave them benefit of the doubt. That I would at least try to manouvre out, and if I couldn't, only then would I go back in. I didn't want to disturb someone who was in with dentist.
So I had a good few minutes of manouvring.. I didn't hit her car though it was certainly v close to it. But I have good eyesight and also have sensors for reversing. The dental nurse that I'd just seen for treatment, looked out of window a few times watching me and giving me thumbs up . But then I saw the car owner filming me on her I-Pad out of the waiting room window. Why she did that instead of come out and move it a few metres I don't know.
She came out and carried on filming and I asked her why, and said I had not touched her car and as she could see, she had blocked her in. The only thing she said was, 'alright'. She kept on watching me and filming. I told her to go and look at both cars and she'd find nothing (my car is light silver and hers is dark blue so any scrape would certainly show) She had a look and and stopped filming but had, I would say, 3-5 minutes worth. She said 'well the nurse told me you'd hit my car'. I told her that I hadn't and had I done, I'd have come in and owned up (not like I could do a runner , could I?!)
She still did not offer to move her car and eventually I freed myself (my car) and drove off feeling really rattled. I hate the thought of a stranger having footage of me , my number plate visible and accusing me of damage. What if she maintains I caused damage off camera? Her car is an absolute wreck full of dents and scratches and mine is a lot newer and relatively few (does have a dent but on the other side to the side close to hers when manouvring..so she can prove nothing) but it was like she was just out to get me
What kind of person blocks you in and then comes and films your struggle to get out?
