Neighbour leaves note on parked car and what happened next has caught Reddit's attention

One of the most unprecedented woes in modern times is parking on the road and heated arguments resulting from it. People can tolerate anything but a neighbour’s car parked in their area makes them lose their cool. Following the same, a series of exchanges featuring a driver and the person in front of whose house the vehicle had been allegedly parked, has now gained traction on Reddit. While the incident’s location remains unclear, the user’s name ‘CasualUK’ who first shared the post on the discussion website makes it possible for the country to be Britain.

Based on the viral post, it all started after a neighbour stuck a note using cello tape on the parked car’s windowpane. The deferential request read, “Please move your car. Thank you.” The courtesy call should have made the driver remove his vehicle parked on a public street easily. However, the driver’s blunt reply has left Internet users astonished. The driver wrote, “May I ask why? It’s taxed, insured, and on the road I live on. At least tell me! Paul (Number 31), Who are you?”

Casual UK is a popular page for UK-based non-political news, commentary and discussion. The post was captioned, “Follow me for episode 3 of this amazing story.”

“I’m invested in it so far but there are a few plot holes that can’t be overlooked. In Episode 1 why didn’t they just explain why the car needs moving rather than Episode 2 being a filler episode? I feel unfortunately this was a victim of the writers’ strike and will not see a series 2,” added another user.
