    There has been a car parked outside of my house for the last 2 weeks. It's not obstructing me or anybody in any way. It is definitely none of the neighbors cars either. Where I am is not a place where it would be a handy place to park either and it was left late at night.

    Kinda worried about the owner?

    Does it have a sign on the side saying 'Flowers By Irene'?

    Is it a bit much to ring the guards?

    I wonder is the owner still in it?

    You could be doing a lot of people a favour by simply calling the Gardai.

    Does it have valid tax, insurance and NCT? If it does perhaps call the Gardai and it may turn out to be a stolen car parked up.

    Not at all! They appreciate genuine calls that are intended to help them or the public.

    No. In the drivers seat.

    they are as likely to think he's being a wiseguy and arrest him for wasting their time.

    Can't believe no one has suggested ringing the guards yet. Do that, or, y'know, walk up to the car and have a look inside.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,395 ✭✭✭✭mikemac1


    The local gangland leaders stored it there and will use it in a tiger kidnapping later this week

    Best to burn it OP, you're doing the gardai a favour

    You sure it isn't one of the neighbours car, or a friend of a neighbour putting it somewhere to avoid parking fees at the airport perhaps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,606 ✭✭✭✭kneemos
