Is this a crime? If so, what offence.

Is there such a crime as "vehicle interference"?

Yes, but it relates to tampering with a vehicle in order to steal it or something from it.

And you implied it was you by saying ti felt good, something only the person comitting the act would know.

So you let someone's tyres down?

Hope you're not on cctv and get lifted for vehicle interference.

Vehicle interference? Are you serious? There has to be intent for theft of the motor vehicle or trailer or part of the vehicle, or theft of anything carried in or on the vehicle or trailer, or an offence of taking without consent for it to be vehicle interference.

It wasn't dangerous as the car was in a car park but I can see b being an issue. I bet the person wishes he had worn a balaclava now.....

Was it a Local Authority car park? If it was then it would be an offence of Tampering With a Motor Vehicle (Sect 25 of the RTA 1988). It would be fair to assume that tyres come under the description of "brake or other part of its mechanism". There's no need for danger to be caused for that offence, nor for it to be concerned with taking the vehicle (as interference with a vehicle is):

Criminal damage.
Person finishes their work out, heads off and picks up the orphans they deliver to football practice, and then suffers a blow out due to under-inflated tyres killing 4. Still feeling so smug at revenge on a "flash git?"

I don't think it is possible to drive far on completely flat tyres.

However, in view of your comments, perhaps keying the paintwork would be safer....

Depending on what happened after the event, could be manslaughter, perhaps?

I dont think the victim would go that far for a couple of let down tyres.
Theres no guarantee the victim even knows the people that work at the pool complex or has access to the CCTV.

This is all hypothetical, wink, wink.



Somebody (unnamed) was furious and waited until the flash git had disappeared to the gym (big muscles), picked up a match stick and let two of his tyres down. Petty, I know (but felt good).

Well done, I like your style. Which was it, a BMW or an Audi?;)

Letting peoples tyres down, scratching the paintwork of a vehicle...you sound like a mini crime wave and I really hope you are caught sooner or later, either by the cops or the owner of a vehicle who soundly gives you a beating.

Lord knows what you would do if somebody beat you to the queue at your local supermarket!

You sound unhinged.

I have seen people carefully reversing into a parking space in our high street and some selfish person nips in. It's really selfish and the height of bad manners. The victim, I am sure, is furious but impotent. What can you do -- no law has been broken?

On one occasion, somebody close to me may have gone a bit far, but I am sure a lot of people on here will find it understandable. There was no danger, no damage, but a bit of inconvenience was caused. Perhaps he won't be so selfish next time.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha....(unhinged laughter).
