Report a parked car as abandoned?

mookeywrench · May 2020

A car has been parked in front of my house for 30 plus days. We've been on a stay ay home order for about 40 days.

Theres too many homes to go door-to-door to see whose it is. We and other neighbors would use the spot of available.

Our city has a 24 hour public parking ordinance.
The stay at home order expires June 1st.

Would you call in the vehicle as abandoned?
Cut them some slack due to the stay at home order?
Call it in early june?

They’re probably holed up with family somewhere on the block. I’d wait until early June, or a week after the stay at home order expires, before you call it in. I doubt that it is a city priority right now anyway.

Ummmm cut them some slack for sure. It’s weird times out there. Can’t imagine that’s real high on the city priorities list right now.

Thats what i was leaning towards. The only thing that is getting to me is that out all the potential houses it could be, have driveway space for the car which makes it irrational.

I don't mean to be gross, but did you glance into the car to make sure no one is in it?

I only ask because a handful of blocks up from where I live, there was an abandon car not belonging to anyone on the street. They reported it after a week. In the car was a girl reported missing. She was murdered. Never found the person responsible.

Ewww, you're gross!

Hope to FSM that isn't the case for Mookey.

Try putting a tag on the window facing the street. Perhaps the person might see it and respond?
