After a neighbor left a smug note demanding “one car per house,” we ignored it—until we woke up days later to both our cars being towed. She stood outside grinning as it happened, clearly pleased with herself, assuming she’d won.
That smile vanished when we pointed out a small detail she’d missed: the cars were clearly marked company vehicles. By having them towed illegally, she wasn’t just inconveniencing us—she was now on the hook for tens of thousands in damages. What she thought was petty revenge quickly turned into an expensive lesson.
