I live in a street where there is a turning point in the corner. There has been a car parked in the turning point for at least 6-8 weeks which to the best of my knowledge hasn't moved (the windscreen wipers have been in the same position). I had never seen the car on the street before it was parked there, but I don't go all the way down to the bottom so there's a chance I've just missed it. I've checked the tax and MOT and they expired a good few months ago, one of them more than 6 months ago. Prior to this people/visitors did park there but only on a short term basis. It was basically an extra visitor space.
I don't think it's fair for someone to leave their car there indefinitely so have considered reporting it for being untaxed. My question is WIBU to do it without knocking on my neighbours doors first? I'm reluctant to do it because 1) I don't own the road so have no right to know anything about the car, really, and 2) if I did and the owner opted not to do anything, they would know it was me who reported it.
I'm prepared to be told to mind my own business but it just seems unfair for one person to monopolise this extra space that was previously benefiting the whole street.
