Has your neighbour ever parked their car outside your house? This woman in the US has taken her retaliation to the extreme.
Footage of an angry driver pushing their neighbour’s car down the street – after it was parked in front of the “wrong” house – has gone viral on social media platform TikTok.
A string of videos uploaded by TikTok user Joewella DeVille detail the act and aftermath of her unoccupied Toyota RAV4 SUV being pushed down her street in the US state of New York – after it is parked in front of an angry neighbour’s house.
In a follow-up video, the neighbour claims she has complained about DeVille’s car being parked outside her house “three times” – and that she “doesn’t want the car in front of her house.”
However, the social media user and videographer argues there are no restrictions on parking on their street – 24 hours a day and seven days a week – and calls her neighbour “insane”.
According to subsequent videos, the aggressor was charged with a ‘Class E’ offence – which is said to result in a fine of up to $US3000 ($AU44600, or at least a year in jail. The damage to the TikTok user’s Toyota RAV4 is said to amount to $US4500 ($AU6700).
“I have a good sport set up in my house so that I can film the whole thing… hopefully that juicy video of her being arrested will be coming soon,” the TikTok user said in a later video.
While having a stranger’s car (or even a neighbour’s car) parked in front of your house may be frustrating, there’s generally very little you can do about it.
In Australia, if the car is registered and parked legally (within permit restrictions), it can stay there for as long as the owner wants. If a car’s registration has expired, and the vehicle seems abandoned, you can contact your local council to request to have it removed.
If you are suspicious about a parked car, and it doesn’t belong to any neighbours, you can call the local (non-emergency) police station and flag it as a potentially stolen vehicle.
Should you ever take the law into your own hands? We say no, but what are your thoughts?
