Getting Into It With a Neighbor

The plaintiff claims her neighbor, the defendant, had her car illegally towed, so the plaintiff is suing. The defendant argues the plaintiff blocked his driveway with her vehicle, so he called the cops. After that, the city towed the plaintiff's car away.

[@kyled2329]

How do you have the nerve to park in front of someone's driveway?!?!

[@fitnessfocused]

If he extended his curb cut to the end of the block, would it make it a driveway??? 😂😂😂

[@686JM]

@kyled2329 The defendants were splitting hairs when the picture clearly showed their driveway WASN'T blocked. Did you even pay attention to the case? BOTH sides are petty, but the defendants were in the wrong in getting the plaintiff wrongly towed.

[@kyled2329]

If its blocked even 1 foot its blocked. I had this happen to me a few months ago. Literally could not get my car out of my own driveway. I had another car that was not running in the other spot and someone parked behind my running car. Endded up finding the neighbor that did it otherwise I would hsve had it towed.

[@kimr282]

Even if it was intentional, so what! You don’t have the right to block someone’s driveway and they are not obliged to call you when they want access to their property. 😡

[@fitnessfocused]

So what? 😂😂😂 He can’t take up public curb space because he wants to keep the larger, illegal driveway.

[@686JM]

@kimr282 Pay attention to what is said at the end of the video about wrongfully towing 😊

[@kimr282]

@@686JM I did. And I stand by my statement. They are not obliged to call them when they want access to their property. Furthermore you don’t have to be 100% correct to get someone towed, but you ought to be willing to live with the consequences of your decision if you do… some things are so worth the cost.

[@jennross6466]

To the plaintiff, if your brother doesn't reside with your mother and is only visiting, he has NO business parking, blocking the defendant's driveway. Sounds like entitlement.

[@melissachatwin9673]

He has no business blocking it regardless. Her mums sick, right? Now if she needs emergency services I bet she'd want them to park as close as possible.

[@mycinnamongirl]

Regardless of the legality of the driveway width, the plaintiff CLEARLY is blocking the driveway. And she knows it! Just because she knows someone down at Town Hall doesn't mean it's ok to use that connection to harass the homeowners.

[@JamieM470]

I agree. I'm looking at the picture at 3:58 and she's so far into the driveway it even ticks me off and it's not my home lol. The entire front wheel well is into his driveway. That's between 3 and 4 feet blocked, maybe more, and the other vehicle is maybe half a foot in. Many states have laws that you cannot park within 5 feet of the edge of a driveway. I believe the smallest allowance is 3 feet. That amount of clearance is crucial for line of sight and maneuverability.....especially onto what appears to be a narrow one-way street in this case. That means if she parked at the very edge of his existing (too wide) driveway, it would allow the legal 9 feet plus 5 feet clearance. I'll bet that's why the case against him was dismissed. Not that "he got lucky" like JM said. JM made it sound like he was being stupid and petty, and he's clearly not. If people parked on her driveway like that so she couldn't see oncoming traffic and had trouble turning onto the street, there would be BIG problems for them.

[@christibarrick1768]

Way too many people like her. They think they can do whatever they want with no consequences. I see more and more of “her” type everyday.

[@spencerlincoln2428]

Exactly I really don’t understand the verdict in this case, now the plaintiff feels entitled to block driveways by parking many feet into the area

[@VladmirPoopN]

There is no "regardless". She can't be in violation of blocking a legitimate driveway that is technically not up to code (because it's too big).

[@VladmirPoopN]

​@@JamieM470there was already a back and forth going on between the two. JM was trying to make it clear that if the guy didn't call the tow, his driveway wouldn't be in question (again) - being the exact thing that prevented him from winning because it's not up to code. Because his driveway has the wrong dimensions, you can't prove the car would have STILL been in a violating spot.

[@Van-hb2lk]

[@stevelozano9523]

The neighbor could have called them to move the car. How about her have the courtesy of not blocking a driveway and not stirring up an issue? Then to top it off, she calls the city to site them because she got mad for the tow. She's not as innocent as she claims.

[@Nevaeh1]

The plaintiff still shouldn't block the defendant's driveway then expect the defendant to track her down and call her every time he wants to get out.

[@NM-xr9pi]

yeah i'd tow her too...

[@fitnessfocused]

Oh my goodness, she parked in the public curb space that was illegally cut out. 😂😂😂

[@BlackMayne]

Her wig needs it’s own parking spot

[@VeryKinkyCurl]

😂

[@shawnda8317]

It was thrown out the first time , all they need to do is take that paperwork to prove it. Also, their real estate agent should be held accountable for not disclosing the 'illegal' driveway. That is a material fact that may have deterred the defendants from purchasing the house in the beginning

[@marys4565]

It was thrown out the 1st time but also notified it was an illegal drive. The previous owners may have purchased it not knowing it wasn't legal and had no issues to let them know. If there were issues and they were made aware yet did nothing, then I would pursue something against them. There should be records with the city if they were ever notified. All these owners had to do is call the car owner. She still has no right to block it though. Legal or not.

[@tamekadavis6641]

She sounds entitled 🙄 for her to say everybody parks there but her car is the only car to get towed. I believe she thought what's good for the goose is good for the gander.😂

[@melissachatwin9673]

Yes and thinks due to her "sick" mother she's entitled to the space. Where I come from, blocking a drive way is a tow a huge fine, you aren't even permitted to block your own

[@yung1717]

Plaintiff was wrong though

[@fitnessfocused]

The plaintiff was clearly right. The defendants need to fix the illegal curb cut and restore the public parking space.

If she wasnt in violation, then the cops would not of issued her a ticket. they decided the car could be towed, not the defendant bc thats not how it works, u cant just have someone' car towed for no reason, it has to be illegally parked. so, she was obviously in the wrong, so why do they have to pay HER tow fee? unfair judgment in my opinion.

[@missa1goins]

[@charliefleming3251]

he knew by the time he towed it that he was in the wrong and had an illegal driveway. You cant come into legal things with unclean hands.

[@AspiireK]

@@charliefleming3251 but that was thrown out by the court. So if it’s illegal why throw that out? And illegal or not…it’s still their driveway & they bought the home that way. It’s not like they purposely added onto the driveway AFTER they bought the home

[@magicworld3242]

The defendant's wife is extremely nasty. I'm absolutely positive, she's behind a lot of the problems that exist in their lives. Her husband is a simp, who already knew his driveway was illegal "before" he called the tow truck company.

BAD VERDICT.

[@adventuresconjuan]

Wow ! The defendant really thought they had a case on her 😂😂😂😂 good for her

[@NubianP6]

Orrrr, maybe they could just NOT block a person’s driveway when they’re parking! No one should ever have to come and hunt you down, or even call you when you’ve inconvenienced them over, and over again.

[@kimr282]

I have to disagree with the judge on this one. They only called the cops, the cops came out and made the assessment to ticket and tow. The should either correct it or spray paint a line for the 8 feet allowed. Every time after that I’d be calling the police on her. How obnoxious is she to think she is entitled to park their just because the previous owner didn’t mind.

[@GloryStephane]

The plaintiff was parked too close. Point blank, no one should have to fight to get out of the driveway. Unfortunately for them there was an issue with their driver way but that was too tight with the other car on the other side.

[@ultimatecouponlady]

If their driveway wasn't so illegally wide, nobody would be blocking it.

[@JamieM470]

@@ultimatecouponlady Legally, you're supposed to park 3-5 feet away from the edge of a driveway, depending on which state you're in. So even if his driveway was the legal 9 feet wide, she was too close. She didn't leave enough clearance for him to see oncoming traffic or turn out safely onto a narrow street. If he was driving a 7-foot wide truck, she left about one foot of clearance on either side for him to pull out. That's not 3-5 feet, so it's not safe.

There was plenty of space to get out of the driveway. The defendant even stated that everyone in the neighborhood parked like that. The curb cut was way too long and thus illegal. The defendants knew that also. They just really disliked her and wanted to get her ticketed and towed. Now the plaintiff gets her money back from the ticket and tow and the defendants has a citation for the illegal curb cut. And they will have to pay money to get it corrected. All because they wanted to cause problems with the plaintiff. .

[@morrisw78]

Judge, Why should a homeowner be required to squeeze out of their driveway because of it being partially blocked by any motorist?

Judge Milian was wrong in this case. The plaintiff was blocking the driveway and whether it was too long had already been throw out of court once. The plaintiff should park somewhere else, even if she has to walk a little bit.

I agree. If I had been ticketed and went to court and then it gets dismissed, what am I supposed to think? I would think my driveway must be fine then or at the least the city doesn't have an issue with it. And I'm sorry, that small gap between the two cars would make it very difficult to get out of and still be able to see the road is clear to back out into.
