I guess some people don't grasp that public roads can be parked on by anyone with a taxed vehicle, you don't own the road outside your house.

You can understand why it would be annoying though, the graffiti is fair enough

THIS

Plus you can't live nearby to an airport and then complain about busy roads lol.

I see both sides to it, strictly speaking the cars can park there but it is a bit of a pisstake to leave them there for weeks at a time. It's different to a person coming home from work now and again and finding someone else parked outside their house on occasion. Residents who know the cars owner can also ask someone to move in the event of an emergency, like an ambulance needing access or if they have a removal van trying to park etc. In this case the cars owner is sitting on a sun lounger in Zante not giving a fuck about it and nobody can do a thing about the car. If it were me I wouldn't leave my car in a random street for weeks on end anyway. I'd be worried someone would report it as abandoned ffs.

Long-stay parking should really be done in a proper car park.

Also bear in mind that sometimes people pay a firm to park their car (meet and greet) while they're away, and that firm then just goes and parks it on a street somewhere.

I THINK SMASHING THE WINDOWS AND SLASHING ALL THE TYRES IS SLIGHTLY EXCESSIVE

Malcolm Tucker · 09-08-2017, 12:07

Yeah, I dunno if that article mentions it but apparently some of the residents put notes on and washable messages etc, but that then seemed to give confidence to others to do their own vandalism that isn't as temporary.

In the long run it would probably have worked out cheaper to have the car in the secure car park at the airport; and at least you'd be able to drive home straight away.

Nah, excessive would be if they burnt the cunt out. Smashing windows and tyre slashing is par for the course in Luton.
