Parking problem

Seeing her husband coming home and feeling angry because of the paper stuck on his car, Ms. Phuong smiled and asked:

- Probably kids just stuck it on. Tell me what happened?

- I went to photocopy the documents, there was no more space in front of the store so I parked upstairs. Thinking it would be quick, I parked between two closed houses. About 5 minutes later, when I came out, I received a note saying "You have money to buy a car but not conscience" along with an annoyed look from the homeowner. I was very upset but still had to gently apologize to get it over with.

- The car parked in front of the door blocking the entrance, people were annoyed so they did that.

- I knew that parking in front of the house would cause trouble, so I parked between two houses. And there was no sign prohibiting parking on that road. The traffic police didn't warn them, so why was the homeowner so upset?

- You got a piece of paper, but it's still light. My colleague had his car door scratched with a sharp object and had to have it repainted for a million dollars. Many houses that don't do business still have a "no parking" sign in front of their door, while those that sell goods claim the space in front of their door as their own parking spot and don't let anyone park. It's someone else's house, they can do whatever they want.

- The house is theirs, but the sidewalk and the road are public property. If we park in a place that the government does not prohibit, what right do they have to do that? Even if the person parked illegally, the penalty is still the responsibility of the authorities, not the homeowner. In my colleague's case, if there is evidence, the homeowner could be charged with destroying other people's property.

At this time, neighbor Khang came over to listen to the story and joined in the fun:

- But I have to admit that the drivers are very "charming" when it comes to parking. Like the other day, there was a strange car parked in front of my house, and there was no phone number left on the car. I had to ask around the street, even into several houses in the alley to ask, but I still didn't know whose it was. The house only had one entrance and exit, and the car was blocking it, so the couple had to struggle to get their motorbike into the house. It turned out that the car owner had come to a friend's house to eat, drink, and then rest, so he parked from morning until late at night before coming out to get the car.

- Yes, it must be admitted that many drivers park carelessly, which is why people are upset. But only when you have a car can you see the hardship of drivers looking for parking.

- I think in the long term, not only the central wards but also other wards need to plan parking spots or lots with fees. That way, we can meet the needs of the people, avoid turning the sidewalk into a yard and the current situation of haphazard parking, occupying all the walkways - said Mr. Khang.

- If so, that would be great - Mr. Tung nodded.
