Violation: Parking on a Private Road & in Parking Spaces

shortdog

Write on windscreens with sharpies or dry-wipe markers. They come off, but need a bit of elbow grease. If they come back to their car to find "please don't park here" written on the windscreen with sharpie a couple of times, they'll stop. I do it to people who park across my driveway, it's fairly effective, without carrying the risk of being done for vandalism.

Serious? What's a sharpie (a sort of felt-tip pen?) I liken it to people parking in someones driveway, although we are flats and a couple of houses on a T-junction cul-de-sac.

Had one bloke park in a bay and when I questioned him he got aggresive and called me stupid for asking such a question "Can I ask why you are parking here"? He doesn't even live in neighbouring flats! He even brought in racism when there was no reference in anyway by me to it. I simply want people to stop parking here and do so by being as polite as possible about it.

Matchsticks - leaves evidence. Just need to de-flate tyres a bit.

Nice.... Great, so stand there for 5 mins trying to cover up the whistling sound? :rotfl:

Valve removal tool is the way forward (and only about £2 on Ebay), stick it in, give it a turn, take it out and walk away


~edit~ ^^ Apparently

Lol. Sounds good, but they'll still know it's one of us! Like the idea though.

Are you a man or a mouse? You will not sort this out until you all get your act together they are laughing at you.

Organise a rota and get someone on duty there when they are parking in the morning. With luck someone will lamp you and you can have them charged with assault.

There are those of us that like to act within the law. Nothing about being a man or mouse, it's about being a decent human being as against scum.

Set up as pay and display? - season tickets for residents. Charge 50p less than the station carpark, it would help towards maintainance.

We have thought about charging say £5 a day to park!

Which part of having someone on duty to tell folk they can't park is against the law?

If you want to sort it out read post #5 and follow those instructions. It's not difficult but it will cost.

Gates won't work here. Bollards - perhaps! But they won't prevent this idiot from parking on the rd.
