I have no idea why this annoys me so much!

The people who live diagonal from us. Park in front of our house EVERYDAY and ALL NIGHT! There driveway is always empty. ALWAYS! and there is like 1 car parked in front of their house. They don't park in front of the house next to us which is DIRECTLY across from them. Only in front of our house. and its kinda like we go around the block and they hurry and move the car in front of our house. Chat Icon

So tonight when I came home I parked out front (since im the first one to leave in the morning but was home first) and then when Mike came home he parked on the street also. instead of them parking in front of their house or in their driveway OR in front of our neighbors house they parked DOWN the block! *** it is so strange.

Im usually not one to complain about parking since

a) i dont own the street
b) i know what parking is like in queens Chat Icon

But I do have to say its strange and a little annoying. Chat Icon

Ok.... so whats your point then? Chat Icon


Levittown is wierd. I have driven down some blocks that have TONS of cars on the street. But I happen to live on a block that has plenty of cars in their driveways.

Its so strange. Why park all the way down the block when you can park in your driveway in front of your house or across the street (my next door neighbors have a huge driveway and NEVER park on the street so its always empty)

Well it depends... do they have a nice car... or a beater? Chat Icon

If my neighbor across the street wants to park his ferrari in front of my house.... fine.

But if he wants to park his 1980s Datsun Beaterosa.... forget it. Chat Icon

quite frankly, ferrari OR beater, park in front of YOUR OWN DAMN HOUSE!!!

1) Ferrari in front of my house would only lead people to believe we're $$$$$$, thus making our house a target for burglary!
No thanks! don't need that!

2) Beater - is an eyesore! Park it in front of YOUR OWN DAMN HOUSE!!! Chat Icon

Yeah... that can work. My wife parks her truck on the street in front of our house.

When i put the garbage out... i make sure I put it at least 5 feet away from her truck just in case.

Stick your garbage right on top of their car. Then when the garbageman comes... maybe he will have a "whoops" while picking up the trash cans. Chat Icon But of course if he has a beater... this won't work. Chat Icon

Our neighbor across the street doesn't have a driveway and parks right behind our driveway. I am always afraid I am going to smack into it in the morning.

Re: I have no idea why this annoys me so much!

If they turn off of the main road onto your road, is your house on the right side, thus easier to park in front of? My parents live on the right side of the street off a main road and the people across the street would park in front of my parents' house because they were too lazy to turn their car around and park in front of their own house.

I know it is annoying, though. My parents' neighbors park in front of my parents' house instead of their own when they have an empty driveway. First it started that they parked somewhere between the two houses, but recently they park right at the end of my parents' driveway.

If laws were really enforced no one would be able to park on the street overnight...

Re: I have no idea why this annoys me so much!

it would bother me too.. I know I don't own the street, but I feel like the space directly in front of my house should be for mine or FH's car Chat Icon

... do you think they are tenants of that house diagonal from you? maybe that's why they don't park in the driveway or in front of the house?

Invest in some orange cones - we had to do this at my parents house last year! Some jerk kept parking right in front of our house....so we put orange cones all along the curb for about a week....they got the idea. Chat Icon
