We can’t avoid inconsiderate drivers on the road or in public parking garages, but when we get home to an apartment building the one thing we hope we can rely on is having a spot waiting for us. Well, this was not the case for one Australian redditor.
In his post, the disgruntled car owner explained that an annoying trend was starting to occur of a strange car being left in his reserved parking place. Determined to find a resolution he tried several peaceful tactics but nothing worked, so he decided to take matters into his own hands. Scroll down below to check the true story on how this fed-up redditor finally got revenge on a careless car owner.

People were impressed with his elaborate revenge plan
I wouldn't call it petty. He gave the guy plenty of warnings. Then he tried "legit" means which didn't help. Finally he resolve the issue the best way he could without causing any damage.
This was incredibly detailed lol. I appreciate his dedication
Stuff like this really irks me! I live in a block of flats near to a primary school, the parking for my building is round the back, there is a long driveway from the street running along the side of the building to the car-park out back, EVERY.SINGLE.MORNING when i pull onto the driveway there is some asshole parent parked across the driveway, which means i have to sit there and wait until they go back to their car so i can leave. it's pretty petty i know but it really grips my shit every time! to avoid this i either have to leave early enough to miss the rush and be half hour early to work (not a chance!) or leave after the rush and get to work a few mins late because of these inconsiderate bellends. just get up and ready a few mins earlier, park further out and walk your kids in! why do you have to land right on my doorstep to be as close as possible to the school you lazy motherfudgers?! I love to edge my 12 yr old car out enough to be almost touching their brand new cars.
That is soooo rude!! I'm a mum and I'd never ever park across someone's driveway, that's just crap.
Happens to my sis-in-law often. They live across from a school and inconsiderate parents park across her driveway all the damn time. The worst part is the town has many schools and almost every house in their respective district is an easy walk for the kids. There is really no need to ferry your spawn to their school. I know because I walked it my entire schooling. Stop being a helicopter parent and let your kids walk their ass to school.
Update: this morning i had a row with a mother trying to park her 4x4 on double yellows on the corner of the road-she reverses out so another parent nips into her vacated spot, she then stops dead middle of the main road, i can't move because there are cars behind and theres only room to go one way, she's now holding up 4 lanes of traffic, i hoot her to move as she is stopping everything else moving, so now shes out of her car screaming obscenities at me with lots of little kids around,including her kids sat in the car watching her go bezerk. she gets in&out of her car 4 times to do this.this is a regular occurrence.when my kid went to that school, before i lived there i parked waaay out and walked her to the gate. it's not hard!
When we were kids, we walked a mile to school in all kinds of weather. We would get 2 blocks from the school, and there were the moms getting all the kids into the car: Hurry up, we'll be late.
I had a bf who parked across our drive. The car was black and it was night. When my sister backed out to go to work---Bam! Good thing she had insurance.
You could try getting a set of no parking cones off Amazon or somewhere else and line them up in front of your drive if they don't cause traffic issues, then just move them out of the way when you need to go through. Most drivers wouldn't be bothered to get out to move them.
Maybe a letter to the school would help. They might address it in their news letter.
Buy an old landrover at a wrecking yard and just smash it out of the way. Go back and pick up your normal car and leave.

If you can maneuver you car out of the parking spot, deflate the tires. Soon word will spread between the parents and you'll be left alone
