To tow or not to tow partiers cars parked in my yard

Just equip one of your vehicles with a police push bar to push the offending cars off your property.

A few years ago, an estimator at work pissed me off in a big way. I went out and removed the valve stem cores and caps from 1 side of his jeep, and put them on top of the tires. To say he was pissed was an understatement. When he came at me about it, I told him I was a nice guy, because I had seriously considered throwing them in the tall unmowed lawn next door, but that I was just trying to teach him a lesson.

Couple months later, he went to work somewhere else, and after 5 years came back to our shop. We laugh about it now, but he was MAD at the time.

In a related method, maybe pull a couple cores, let deflate, replace and wait for the show. Almost nobody carries 2 spares. Hey, you could maybe sell them air for their tires! Maybe mention "yeah, that seems to happen a lot in this neighborhood"

I have in the past considered cutting the valve stems off of jerks' cars, but then you're inviting charges given the state of the world today. Idiots are the last to see that maybe it's them that's the problem.
 
And video footage to prove it!


Isn't it fun to overthink about it though?

I'm still standing firm with removal of lug nuts and having a bucket full. And I wouldn't hide it. I'd be out there with cordless impact in hand and 3 or 4 sockets in my unlaced work boots, boxers and wife beater greeting the happy partyiers as they were getting out of their cars. Of course with a cooler of some of the finest lager.

And shooting video of course.
We actually talked about this at work today. But he suggested I setup to paint some car parts while wearing the respirator, boots and cutoff jorts lol. The tow companies I called will tow them if I pay the bill since it's on private property but only if i pay.. I do like all the more "creative" ideas but I think I'll go with the valve stem plan. Credit goes to motorheadmike(I think) even though I read it as take the valves loose at first glance:doh:until supercharged111 pointed it out. I guess I just assumed the most diabolical plan would come from him. I can also get the neighbors a tool too, you know to spread the damage. I can't get too crazy. What's right isn't always legal lol, I'm all my son has and tbh I'm not built for jail anymore(too pretty) Just not sure what kind of damage you can inflict on someone else's stuff even if it's on your property. I think dragging them off into the road would be ok but not sure. And there's the retaliation factor. Kid and woman safety is my #1 job. So like a ninja letting the air out of the tires while they're all getting wasted should suffice. I'll get street side tires so they won't know it was me. And idk about video since I can never load them, but I'll get pictures for sure of the aftermath.

Man I see that and it reminds me of my cousin Jesse. He loved the cvpi. His had that push bumper, a semi horn, lights and sirens. We'd scare our friends impersonating the police or go do donuts in empty parking lots, lights going and sirens blazing. The intake cracked and the thing shot a plug out after he put some scanner on it. 😆 🤣. I miss that guy, he was a professional fun haver. He was my car show/race track buddy until the booze got him.

The guys over on Crownvic.net would object to your cousin LOL. Some guys have gotten in big trouble with the real cops for looking too much like an active cop car. Only things mine still has are the factory spot lights, trunk organizer, and a empty Havis console. I even seen a still active CVPI disguised as a retired one, plugs in the roof and everything well hidden.

Yup just back them out a little so they seep. And the cap not to tight to not act as a seal😏

I recently had a problem very similar to this as most know I'm in the most definitely populated area of the united states and I live with one of the most heavily traveled toll roads in the country in my back yard I'm on the corner of the only dirt road in the city and a heavily traveled county road here in the people's republic of toxic waist. The house nextdoor to me is a rental property. The woman who was living there has been in bad health for quite some time and is a foster parent for several boys of many ages. All hood rat punks they've learned over the years not to tangle with me and to stay away from my daughters. However. In recent months the foster mom has been in and out of the hospital and whenever she's in HUGE PARTY! Now I'm no saint by any means and I've been in and out of the system in my youth so I felt to a point. Some of my other neighbors called the cops and such. I'm a....... Little more hands on them most. When a line was crossed with me I handled it. There just kids but they don't need to be in my yard in the middle of the night making my dog bark when I have work in the morning so I'd gently chase them off with a machete or a hatchet usually resulting in an apology from the oldest after his friends were gone. Last month the woman died ant it went full on insane over there every weekend approximately 400 kids underage drinking drugs and God knows what else not to mention it sounded like a rap concert in my house! My neighbors all had had enough and so had I so I guess they called heavier and called me and asked me to call. I did not look I'm a stand up guy I don't want to be a Rat. It my upbringing but then the Thursday before good Friday my one neighbor had to go and say would you want your daughters going to something like that? Well hell no! So I stewed over it on a Thursday night with work in the morning and it got later and louder then my dogs going nuts. So I called I told the desk Sargent who I was and told him if they don't permanently end it it would probably end abruptly and permanently he said I can't make a threat I said I didn't but all the neighbors told me that privately and I don't want to see those little angles hurt. It's such a harsh world out there.
Exactly 11 minutes later 14 cop cars surrounded the house. I went out back and chased about 15 kids out of my yard with a hatchet. They ran out front and got picked up by pd I heard one tell a cop what I did and he said "that hous? The backyard" lucky he didn't kill you for trespassing stand on the white line!" It took until about 1:30 am for all the parents to come get there kids all the illegally parked cars were towed and every parent was told by pd to never let there child come here again.

Quite ever since
 
IDK..... I think 'sprinklers' & leave it @ that. You def don't want to actually make an enemy in this situation.

They're on your radar . . ..... I can almost guarantee you'll be on theirs if one of their guests see's something (like you in the act).
 
You could just happen to drop a box of screws on nails where they park and miss picking up quite a few. Once it’s resolved to out there with a magnet and get the remainder. No proof that you did it as they could drive over screws anywhere

What's the logic here? Like you said, they could get a screw stuck in a tire anywhere. Seems like that would be assuming they're smart enough to realize 'where' they picked it up so they'll avoid that area?. Car guys might pay attention to sh*t like that but most everyone else? Me thinks not so much.
