So, yesterday I go to Tesco with DH. DH is a wheelchair user and has a Blue Badge.
There were no disabled bays or parent and child bays so I went to a far corner of the car park where there were two empty rows of normal bays and parked between 2 bays so had room for DH to get in and out.
Lo and behold we came back to a car parked so close to my driver's side that I couldn't get between the cars - less than 10 inches in between. The car had parked over into the bay I had half parked in.
We were obviously WTF. The other bays around us were still empty.
Coming round to the front of the cars, we saw there was a young lad no more that 15-17 sitting in the passenger seat of the other car. He obviously couldn't get out of his door either because it was up against mine! I said 'what kind of idiot would park like this' or some such. He said 'my dad'. Then asked him why he'd blocked him in.as well. He didn't answer and just kept his head down. I will admit I did swear a bit saying for fucks sake, this is fucking disgusting. Then said 'tell your Dad he's a complete cunt'. At no point did I make threats to the lad or swear at him. I knew he didn't park the car.
Anyway I then climbed in through the passenger side, moved the car into the row in front, got DH in and we left.
The Dad had not come back. I'm kicking myself because I didn't take a picture of the way he'd parked.
Anyway, tonight at around 8pm there's a knock at the door and two policemen are there. My heart dropped because I thought it was about one of the DC (both were out with friends), but they said they'd had a complaint about me causing 'fear and alarm' to a minor!
Turns out the Dad must have already had my reg number and told the police what I'd said. No mention of how he'd blocked me deliberately and left his son trapped in the car!
He must have known whoever came back to the car would be angry!
Anyway police said I could make a formal apology to the boy and the matter would not be taken further - this was because I admitted swearing.
I said No I will not as I had figured out by then that the Dad had done this all deliberately. No clue who he is.
AIBU to think he must be an absolute psycho?
Especially to leave his son trapped in the car!
