I live on quite a busy road with some parking restrictions. We have a driveway that takes 3 cars (daughters, DP’s and mine). Currently having some work done on house so have a skip on drive and tradesman needs his van in drive while working so he can access his tools etc. We’ve parked DD’s car on our lawn and I’ve been parking mine on the main road.
There is a family across the road from us who are known for being quite intimidating although the mum is really lovely. I’m parked on the main road outside their house. They have a driveway which can fit 6 cars but I noticed that the “dad” quite often parks on the road instead.
Today I finished early and parked my car on street as workmen still here. 30 minutes later loud banging on door and here was “dad from across the road” shouting at me to “move my f*ing car”. Very calmly I asked him why and got told “he parks there”. I did point out it’s a public road and I wasn’t blocking his dropped kerb. He stormed off effing and jeffing.
I haven’t moved my car as I don’t see why I should. OH thinks I should as another neighbour parked there last year and came out to 4 slashed tyres in the morning.
AIBU to think someone needs to stand up to bullies?
