Kicking off in Luton

[SueEllen]

FTFY. Can't believe that some twunts on here think that criminal damage to someone else property should be condoned, actually yes I can. Makes you wonder what the VED does actually pay for.

Feck all.

Goes into the general taxation pot.

Park legally in an increasingly rare, due to council revenue generating 'parking schemes', unrestricted zone?

A windscreen and windows were smashed and the cars daubed with messages complaining about people not paying for airport parking.

Fecking lightweights.

There's only one sure way to prevent such selfishness happening again.

I suspect it was someone vandalising their own crap motor, before it went off to the scrappy, so they get their 15 mins of fame in the Daily Mail.

If people parking their cars had take a moments thought ,

Thought to do what? Park legally in an unrestricted zone?

[Mordac]

If people parking their cars had take a moments thought , or were not so tight, they would have shelled out for airport parking.

Hopefully council will soon introduce permits.

I don't think vandalising them is the best way forward. Far better to break in, jump start and drive it into the nearest canal.

I can't condone canal-based vandalism but I'd be happy to condone driving it into the short-term car park, where they'd almost certainly get a bill for more than the value of the car, looking at some of the sh!te in the photos...

When we got residents parking, there were notices on lamp posts that people needed to move their vehicles before the lines were painted a week before. Anyway a couple of people didn't

One of my neighbour's admitted to "kindly" directing the tow truck to the different roads to dump the vehicles which were car and a mini-bus. (The owners didn't live on our road we were just one of the few roads without it in place.)

Later that day while outside gossiping with a another neighbour we watched as the mini-bus driver returned, couldn't find his vehicle where he parked it and panicked. He then turned round, saw his vehicle at the end of another road and looked completely baffled.

Yet another reason to avoid Luton (as if we needed another reason...)

Reminds me of a street party we had a few years ago, some git (not a local) left their car parked in the street for several days, despite the warning signs which had been up for at least a couple of weeks. So there was a whole empty street with just this one car on it.
To start with we tried to be careful not to damage it, but later on the beer kicked in and we had a giant game of football - there were points on offer for hitting various parts of the car. Finally we let the kids loose on it, and the poor bastard came back to a right mess of dried on ketchup, silly string, shaving foam, beer cans tied to the exhaust etc.
I'd have paid to see the look on his face when he got back to the car...

[original PM]

Also if you look - it is not like those are expensive cars - so maybe what they have actually done is trash someone's car who had saved for years to take their family on holiday.

No excuse for this and the perpetrators should be strung up and pitchforked.

[PurpleGorilla]

I sympathise with the residents, as this kind of parking must be very frustrating. But vandalism is not the way to deal with the issue.

[original PM]

Generally the only people who show this lack of respect for other people's property are those who generally do not work and have everything provided by the state and so never have any of their own property.

But I could be wrong.

[NigelJK]

So which bunch of scrotes here thinks they own the road?

[Scruff]

Suity!
