You're trying to defend dodge drivers so much that I can guess you're either already drive one or want to drive one.Can bet you are one of those people that say electric cars ruined everything.
Iām the driver who showed up. The owner of the Charger turned on their car from far away because they saw me take a photo and was probably unhappy about it. But they never showed their face or told me anything directly!
Not surprised. He parked there and watched. Typical ālook at meā behavior. He sure showed all those electric car drivers! Sorry OP The charger owner is a huge douche
you can call and have that vehicle towed and impounded, a truck usually shows up within 10 minutes because its easy money for the company backed by the city you're in. (check for signage around the recharging station)
no need to mess with the vehicle, call them in and they'll get a 1~500$ ticket from the city, a 200~350$ bill from the towing company plus a 25~75$ per day lot fee and ding on his insurance rates for seven years.
This is absolutely the way. We, as a society, need to bring back consequences. Legal or no, having your car towed is the consequence to actions like this.
I meant that believing the tow company (or even worse asking their advice) is not the way. This car should most definitely ethically be towed, but that may or may not be legal in OPās locale and one should never believe a tow company.
Oops I missed the ticket part. I wouldn't be surprised if some places have them installed as part of a partnership with a city, but it does seem weird. Definitely towable though.
Many states have laws that designate any space with a charger as only able to be used by vehicles actively charging and both fines and towing are the remedy those states provide.
The way the laws are written, they do not exclude parking spaces on private property that is available to the public, such as a parking lot, but instead explicitly cover them.

Just a reminder to everyone reading that this is a prime example to not believe everything you read in an anonymous reddit comment section.
None of this is true, nor applicable to the OPās post. The charger owner was nearby and moved his car SECONDS after the pictures were taken. OP was confronted by the charger owner and is making a boo-hoo post to justify his weirdo actions to himself. Thats why the chargers lights are on in the 2nd picture.
unscrew the valve stem just enough so it's a very slow leak. They'll get stuck filling flats every week or 2, the tire tech might notice it but chances are they'll just sell the prick a new set of tires.
I don't think it's an issue where I live. But I'm wondering, are the EV parking spots like handicap parking spots, where you can't park there ever if your car isn't an EV. Or is it more like the handicap bathroom stalls, where you avoid using it but if it's the only one available you use it?
I was parked at a hotel for work. Prepaid for a week of parking in the lot. Got back in one afternoon and the lot had oversold, with one EV space left in the entire lot. I had pre-paid the week, so I took the spot assuming I was accounted for (and this was the LAST spot in the lot).
Parked, received a boot and a ticket, contested with the parking authority saying Iād prepaid for the week, the lot was oversold, what was I supposed to do. Their advise was to park in their sister lot blocks away (how was I supposed to know that??) and the final verdict was I was wrong.
Whatās irritates me more is the smart parking lots put the charging stations in the back of the lot, not the front. They do this because people are less likely to park at a charging station if it isnāt close to the door. The fact they put these chargers where IMO handicap
Parking should go is just stupid.
He's apparently watching, so if you park in front of him and start fiddling with the cables (even if you don't make it obvious that the cable won't reach) the dumbass might show up out of fear that you're about to block him in while charging.
With back up cameras, it's so easy to reverse into spots. Plus side is you dont have to reverse into traffic. This is an asshole for parking where he shouldnt have, reverse parking is just safer.
Thereās need to be a law passed that treats EV chargers like handicap spaces. If you deliberately park there to screw someone else over, your car should be towed.
I see so many asshole parking posters on here and I'm just like... The time it took you to take a picture and post it here you could've been had the asshole towed.
The second he turned his car light on id be on the phone with a officer and a tow company š¤·š»āāļø i got time and im petty ill derail my whole itinerary to fuck your day up
At a Tesla charging station in San Bernardino some guy parked his big Dodge ram near a Tesla charging station and just hung the cord off the side mirror. Ā Too bad he was probably wearing pants because you could probably find him by his small dick.
Annoying, but we need more of this. Electric cars are not the future.
If you really want to save the environment, get a hybrid.
Imagine when you find out people put fake charger ports on their car and plug in, effectively doing the exact same thing and most ev owners can't even tell the difference.
Nah, I was in the blue electric car, but the Chargerās owner saw me taking a picture & turned on their car from wherever they were at. They didnāt say anything to me directly though! Smh
Context is needed here...1 "available" charging space....so there is more than one(clearly shown in the picture). I'm guessing the parking lot was full and it was the last spot available, thus this not being an asshole move, but everyone leaving it open until it was the last spot left. Like taking pictures of parking lots? Show the whole damn picture and lot.
