A disgruntled neighbour has revealed how someone got ‘swift and brutal’ revenge on a Tesla driver who had decided to park over the pavement and cause pedestrians to go into the road to get by
Parking arrangements between neighbours are always a very contentious subject, with the various particulars managing to rile up even the calmest of people. One man has revealed how a Tesla owner who lived next door decided to park over the pavement outside his home, much to the annoyance of pedestrians who decided to get revenge.
Sharing the shocking images on Reddit, he explained that during the night an anonymous protestor had taken a can of red paint and chucked it over the expensive white car. He wrote: “Neighbor parked his Tesla by blocking the sidewalk, someone threw red paint at his car.”
Despite the attack being a criminal offence, people had little sympathy for the car owner and delighted in their very costly retribution. One person joked: “Carrie meets Elon,” referring to the 1976 horror film Carrie and Tesla creator Elon Musk. Many more people accused: “Someone? It was you! Swift and brutal!”

Another user penned: “Teslas have cameras on all sides. There is most likely footage of the culprit.” And someone else added: “I wouldn’t mess with someone’s car but f*** that person for blocking the sidewalk and f*** that person who threw the paint. Everyone’s the a****** here.”
The red paint isn’t the only time when a frustrated person has got over the top revenge on their neighbour for their entitled parking. A man has been praised for his ‘petty revenge’ on an entitled stranger who parked their car in his driveway. He explained how he returned home to discover a stranger’s car parked on his property, forcing him to leave his own car on the road and wait for them to return.
Annoyed, he wanted to teach them a lesson in parking etiquette and decided to use the ‘items’ he had to hand at the time. He said on Reddit : “A guy parked in my driveway on a rainy day so I couldn’t park in my front yard. I had to park a couple of blocks down and got drenched walking back to my house.
Later that night I took my dog out for a walk. He’s an XL bully so he lays massive poos. Carrying three bags full of his dog’s mess, he decided to ‘make use of it’ rather than throw it away in the bin. I noticed the car was still in my driveway, so I got an idea.
“I ran inside the house to get some gloves and walked back to the car in the driveway, opened up the first bag, and smeared it all over the car while circling around it. Tore open the second and third bag and mushed it on the handles and inside the handles, of course.”
While most users laughed at his ‘petty revenge’, others believe he went too far and could have got the point across without making such a mess. One user said: “I bet he’d have preferred you call the tow truck.”
Another user added: “Lol, great way to say he parked like poo.” A third user said: “Somebody parks in your driveway, you park behind them blocking them in.” One more user added: “I love this story, but they know where you live, so I don’t think I would have done that.”
