A driver who parked in an illegal spot near a local shop came outside to find this note, and his tires flat.
The annoyed person apparently let out the air from his tires.

Lakewood have serious problem and people don’t park their car properly caused accident and cause serious problems.
He should have wrote him a shtarka letter
Wouldn’t have made the driver think twice about the next time
Lol
shtarka, really won’t get you anywhere
Not agree at all, but we can’t just justified the driver, you can see this kind of issues everywhere making Lakewood driving a horrible experience
Lakewood drivers are the worst and the most dangerous on the road. The drive over the white lines against the curbs and on route 70, they drive down the strip for cars that need to pull over or walkers. Need to have license taken away.
Two wrongs don’t make a right… For either person. Start parking like a mentch!
He could’ve gotten towed away so I guess he got off pretty easy
Or the tires could have been slashed.
They should have been.
Great job
This guy is an idiot for parking there but the guy that took out his tires needs to be arrested YOU DO NOT TAKE JUSTICE TO YOUR OWN HANDS!!!!
Idiot, now the guy cant move his car! The joke’s on you!!
Two wrongs don’t make a right!
Really not nice! The parker is definitely wrong, but its not your business and there are nicer ways to get your message across. To me it sounds like you have anger issues
But 2 Wrights made an airplane
Two wrongs don’t make a right! Even if the objector was blocked in, he should have called the police, or store/ mall owner to tow the offending vehicle. It doesn’t appear that way in the picture. It also does not appear to be a fire zone or handicap spot
nobody got time 4 dat
Figure out how to control your emotions in a normal manner!!! You can leave a note that’s respectable amd you might get results.
you obviously dont know who we’re dealing with. ppl who park like this aren’t gonna change unless someone really puts them in their place. they’re not gonna remember one little note for the rest of their lives but they’ll remember this…
you have nothing smart to say
Quite frankly, our thoughts don’t matter. Whatever Hashem thinks is the only thing that matters. So yeah.
We live in a frum community, let’s act that way. We all need to have good middos. The guy who parked was wrong, but maybe there was an emergency. Let’s be Dan Lkaf Zechus. The guy who wrote the note showed terrible middos.
Please act like a Jew and show the world why we were chosen!
Maybe the second guy was a little extreme but you can’t start being dlz with illegal parking on a constant day by day basis and these are recurring issues. Its clearly a lack of mindlfulness and irresponsibility. Will YOU be dlz when someone blocks your driveway when you have to get out and just leave it at: I’m sure he had a good reason, i have all the time in the world..NO! it’s not reasonable that I have to base my schedule around other ppl’s recklessness
As someone who drives a handicapped person around town the amount of ppl that park in handicap spots is out of control!!!
In my opinion, it’s ridiculous. It’s not going to change the fact as to how the driver parked. He could’ve left him a note. you get more with honey than you do with vinegar. And just to point out three-quarter of this town has cameras so if the driver with The slashed tires wants to he can easily find out who did this and he actually can take action against him because it’s called vandalism. Two wrongs do not make a right and karma will come back to you, One way or another
Wasn’t slashed Just let out the air Big difference
police aren’t doing nothing to find the guy who let out the tires. in situations like this its clear whos wrong. be mindful of where you park even if its for a few minutes
I never said the police are.I said if the driver wanted to find out on his own, it would be fairly simple to do. It’s completely wrong as to how the guy parked, but that doesn’t give someone the right to go do this either.
I can understand the frustration of the store owner- probably he’s TIREd of constantly telling people not to park in that spot, that said, I still think the sore owner taking the law into his own hands is FLAT out wrong!
People grow resentful of the illegal parkers, line cutters, tailgaters. Sounds like it was just the straw that broke the camel’s back on this one… Not justifying what was done but rules are made for a reason. If it’s not the right thing to do fund another way.
Yes The driver is completely wrong and selfish. Yes The note writer should control himself. But don’t be a fool and think that if the letter was sweeter or longer or harsher than the driver will change his mind. Everyone knows that he’ll just rip it up.
so in a way the note writer did something illegal but the driver might reconsider next time now
To all that say “leave a note, call the police, etc”. What happens when you do all of the above and nothing comes of it? My neighborhood has been inundated with cars for at least the last 10 years from the local school because there isn’t adequate parking on the schools lot. Our mailboxes get blocked, our driveways crowded, our properties driven across, our garbage cans run over, they park on/across the sidewalks and our vehicles have been run into (without any note left on them) to name just a few things. We’ve started with leaving notes, then contacted the school, called the police and code enforcement, I have spoken to the mayor, police chief and head of code enforcement personally. Only once have the police issued tickets because my neighbors and I stood outside and waited an hour for them to show up, pleading for him to do something. Code enforcement did what they could do and the school/teachers just ignored them. So what do you do at that point? The school year has just started and already the nonsense is happening again. I don’t condone with what was done to the car, but I completely understand the frustration that may have led them to do it.
Perhaps, as being said in DC, NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW. Call the cops and wait until they write a ticket. Then, on the court date, go to court and see what happens.
I have difficulty walking and when I shop at NPGS Main St there are always cars parked in the no parking areas blocking the lowered sidewalk spots
The only person being punished here is the chaverim member who had to show up
I don’t know exactly where this car was parked, and I don’t care if it was parked illegally. What I do care about is if it is (parked illegally and) in other peoples way and makes it harder for other cars to get out or around the block. So to me it’s simple I don’t like the people that think they are the policeman but if you’re getting in other peoples way then we have a serious issue, and he deserves slashed tires not only air let out. So I can’t tell you from your little picture if he was in other peoples way but if he was he definitely deserves it.
First guy is a ganiv but Ze Nehene Vze Lo chaser.
The sencond guy is a mazik and should pay for the damages.
If you want to get yeshivish, letting air out of a tire isn’t hezek
I wish I could do it but I’m Jewish
The audacity of certain Lakewood frum people who park however, wherever and whenever they wish has to be curbed. I was blocked in while parking at a Bais Faygah hall wedding for hours by a similar heartless muchutzof until someone parked in front of my car also left.
KolHaKavod for the air letting and note. The uncaring brats need need to become civilized.A warning would of sufficed.. If it’s a jew who did this , he started off elul the w9rong way.
Such selflessness — being mezakeh Chaveirim with extra avodas hakodesh and added zechusim in Elul
A Big חילול השם the guy that busted the tires You are not a POLICE MAN
Its NOT YOUR JOB
I don’t like it. But people park where they want.
In the end, I think it’s a good lesson.
I once came out of mincha on erev Yom Kippur to find that someone had blocked me in in yeshiva parking lot without leaving me any way out.he also blocked in the car next to me, which belonged to a well known mechanech in town.when the mechanech saw what happened his immediate reaction was’be moichel him, it’s erev Yom kippur’ …. sometimes we need to remind ourselves who we are.however, I think I would understand someone ‘s frustration if they were blocked in or otherwise wronged.and repeat disregard of others sometimes needs a wakeup….as someone who spend alot of time on the road around Lakewood on daily basis, I see alot of seemingly brainless ppl who are simply too tired or distracted to think abt the consequences of their actions
Not allowed! No right to let out the air, and now he can’t move the car! What was accomplished? If this happens so often then the police should give tickets. But this, no right!
im sure the guy who le out the air was NOT a yid!
To respond to both letters this one and the one about sending girls to seminary in Israel. Maybe this is why every guy and girl must go to Israel for seminary and yeshiva. There you learn that not everyone is going to behave exactly the normal way. People will park on the sidewalk and you won’t be able to pass your roommate will shut the ac cuz he/she is cold, people will cut you on line in the grocery, people will smash you on the bus, everyone can and will tick you off there – and you learn how to let things go and have some middos and just live with it. That not everyone is going to perfectly follow your world view about how and what to do. So to this person that let out the tires and the mom complaining about sending her daughter to seminary know this is a major part of what you gain in Israel – NOT to act hastily and foolishly like the person did to this car.
Glad his tires weren’t slashed. BH
its about time everyone realizes lkwd offers gashmius and thats it!!!
