Redditor Faces Backlash After Waiting Only 5 Mins Before Getting A Stranger's Car Towed After Parking In Their Spot

Here's the original post by Reddit user u/BeybladeFireThrow:

OP ended up calling a tow truck and got the stranger's cat towed.

After OP's mom's return, the stranger came back to argue with them.

Here's why OP thinks they might potentially be the a-hole.

Here's how the Reddit community reacted to u/BeybladeFireThrow's post:

"If you chose to park where your parking can result in you getting ticketed and/or towed, you have only yourself to blame for it."

The spot was supposed to be available for its owner.

The stranger could have at least asked for permission.

The stranger knew the risks and now has to deal with the consequences.

A normal person would not have reacted this way.

The stranger was well aware of the consequences and still chose to ignore them.

OP has the right to enforce the clearly posted rules on their property.

It's not that hard to figure out.

OP had no way of knowing how long the stranger planned to remain there.

"He can be mad all he wants to but rules are rules."

Parking spots are something people take seriously.

The stranger was probably lying about how long he planned to stay in the spot.

"Play stupid games win stupid prizes."

You have to ask for permission, even for a short time.

Entitled people feel like they can get away with anything.

OP did nothing wrong.

Even if the stranger claimed he was planning to remain in the spot for 5 minutes, OP would have had no way of knowing that. It's a short period, but once OP showed up, their spot was supposed to be free. If you enjoyed reading this, make sure to check out similar content on our platform.
