    Just call a tow truck. No need to resort to revenge. Them having to retrieve the truck and pay the fees should be enough of a deterrent without giving them reasons to call the police.

            Looks like a parking garage of some sort. Property owners most likely already have a contract with a tow company for parking violations. Should be able to call the property manager to get it towed or call the towing company whose number is probably one of many signs there.

            Huh? Just have the people responsible for the parking garage call the tow truck.

            If it’s illegally parked and you’re not the property owner you definitely don’t have to pay to get it towed

            I had a similar issue with a truck and just called my apartment, they had them towed at the car owner’s expense. That’s usually the best option is contact whoever owns the garage or property management and they’ll get the asshole towed on the asshole’s dime usually.

            It shouldn’t cause the victim anything for this. Just get the parking garage people to call the towing company.

        Not if you slash two or more tires 😈 Tires are around $100-200 a piece to have mounted and balanced, and that’s usually either a used tire or a bottom of the barrel one. If you slash one they can replace it with a spare (assuming they have one). If you slash half or more of them they have to get the vehicle towed and have the tires replaced, that takes a lot of time and money. That could easily be like $600, getting your vehicle released from the tow yard if you pick it up within 24 hours is usually only like $150.

      They’d have to prove you did it in the first place. Sure, you may have the motive, but “innocent until proven guilty”. But yeah, the other owner could be a vindictive asshole and it would just start a war.
