My Car Was Keyed. What to Do?

[ecneret]

Makikisabat lang ng konti huh...

Since hindi naman sa tapat ng gate nyo nagpapark yung corolla, paano siya nakakaabala sa iyo? Although dapat talaga ay walang nagpapark sa kalsada. Para sa akin, as long na hindi siya nakaharang sa taapt ng gate nyo eh ok lang yan, dahil pareho naman kayong walang karapatang magpark dyan eh. So parang magiging unahan lang kayo sa parking space. Hindi rin pwede yang ginawa mong lagyan ng yellow stripe na may semento.

Ang pinakamagandang gawin dyan ay gawin mong driveway yang buong pader nyo, dahil BAWAL magpark sa tapat ng driveway, pwede mo siyang ipa-tow kung ganun...

Magpark ka nalang sa loob ng garahe mo tapos bili ka ng watergun at brake fluid para makagante ka. Honestly, yan ang ginagawa ko twing may nagpapark sa tapat ng gate namin, yung mga bisita ng kapitbahay namin. Ako lage ako nagpapark sa loob ng garahe at ginastusan ko talaga para magkagarahe tapos magpapark sa tapat ng gate ko...Ayun brake fluid lang ang katapat ng ganyan at night...hEhEhE

naisip ko na din gawin dati yang water gun na yan kaya lang nag-doubt ako kung mag-squirt siya coz medyo malapot ang brake fluid. so, pwede pala. hmmm... :evil:

With the Corolla picture. I arrived first so I parked the car in a way na hindi makakaharang sa driveway namin. Pinilit niya pa rin yung parking niya though. And by the way, with parking like that, I actually had the right to have him towed since half the car was on the cemented portion in front of our wall, which is still legally part of our property. Like I said previously, we had that made precisely so I can park the car there so it doesn't protrude onto the road.

Also, wala namang law na bawal magpark sa tapat ng driveway ng ibang tao, just as there aren't any regulations by the owners of our village that ban people from parking on the streets. It's all about common courtesy. I would never park in front of my neighbor's house if it would mean that they would be inconvenienced. Right now though, with the current parking of their Lancer, medyo naka-harang yung likod ng Altis sa garahe namin, so kami pa nahihirapan pag ipapark yung isa pang kotse sa garahe.

Funny how you're so quick to make a judgement call on the validity of me parking on the street, yet spraying brake fluid on other people's cars isn't beneath you.

[dr. d]

you guys have cars but not the requisite garage to park them in? shame on you! why don't you transform part of your house into a garage?
so you live inside a private village and the road in question is a private road? bring the matter to the village administrators!
parking on the sidewalk... simply selfish.
water gun with brake fluid... what's next.. gun with gunpowder and metal projectile?
roads and sidewalks are considered for public use.. we really have no right to...
lastly, never confuse tolerance with right or privilege.

go to court? he who goes to court must be with clean hands..

but i do have a question: why does your neighbor like to park on your side? why does he not park beside his house?

[jut703]

Yup. Shame on me. And practically everyone around us.

If you ask me though, I don't find it selfish unless I'm inconveniencing other people. I don't double park and people can freely pass on our street unhindered by my parking. Our village administrators seem to think the same as well, as they've turned the street into a one way road (paikot kasi yung street) so that people can park on one side and cars won't jumble up as they would had they come from different directions.

but i do have a question: why does your neighbor like to park on your side? why does he not park beside his house?

Because they have 3 cars, and they only park 1 inside their garage (that could fit 2 if they decide to remove the cabinets taking up space).

Funny how this thread has gone way off topic, from possible fixes of scratches to reprimand for not enough garage space. :dance1:

[Sweetlucious]

Bat walang sidewalk yun street niyo?

[ZENMasterTYL]

by the looks of it, di na kaya ng paint detailing 'to

kay atoy at hotwheels, 3k per panel ang repaint

[jut703]

Bat walang sidewalk yun street niyo?

Dunno. Di lang street namin yung ganyan. Most of the village is like that. I don't live in an exclusive, expensive subdivision.

* TS, which casa do you bring your car to?

I feel for the TS. Clearly, he made ways not to be an inconvenience to his neighbors, even sacrifing the frontage of his house. Indeed he does not own the road but common courtesy dictates that we respect each other's space. Even in exclusive villages, common practice is you (and your visitors) can only park in front of your house, those that violate will be tire locked. That goes to show that neighbor's should respect each other's frontage.

I think he is the good guy here, looking at the picture and how the neighbor parked his car, it seems like he is asking for trouble. I commend the TS for keeping his cool, I have no patience for discourtesy. It's really bad luck to have bad neighbors. It's tragic when good people get abused.

Toyota BGC. Accessible, comfortable, and my ninong works there so he ensures that the service advisors don't do anything nasty.

Haven't brought in the car for a quote though. Looking for cheaper alternatives that won't require me to claim insurance. Mahal din yung participation

TS, magkano ba participation mo? If the fee is less than the full cost of repairs, painsurance mo na.

A similar case happened to my oficemate. Alitan sa parking kaya ginasgasahan yung buong APV nya paikot. He claimed it under insurance 3k participation. Single incident lang ang ginawa ng adjuster. Total bill ng repair was rougly 35k.

[_Cathy_]

Why don't you ask your Ninong if he knows any of the body repair shop guys from the casa that own a shop? I had a similar case and they used casa materiales (paint). I asked them to give me a price below my participation, if not, I'll just have it repaired through the casa.

Thanks for that. I'll ring him up on this. A few friends who own shops have also offered their services, but I haven't had time to bring it to their place to have the damage assessed. What I'm hoping for is that most of the scratches can be removed by buffing. I could live with minor marks, but not a 4-foot long streak.

Bakit ba buffing pa din gusto mo solution, claim mo lang sa insurance tapos problema.

[jut703]

Just looking for the cheapest and quickest option.

[_Cathy_]

*TS, Is your car an Altis? If I were you I'd claim na lang. It's around 4k per panel at the casa, sulit na rin participation mo even if it's as high as 5k.

[jon777]

Jut, i feel for you. almost 2 weeks ago, my black Pajero bought 7 months ago was keyed too. yun nga lang, mababaw yung scratch. i will bring the car to a detailer as soon as i have the time to check if they could remove it.

goodluck bro

1. Wala akong inaagrabyadong tao. Especially not in our village. Ni hindi nga ko nagbubusina in fear of ticking anyone off.
2. I park right outside our own driveway. Kung may nahaharangan na driveway, amin yun, dahil yung kapitbahay na katapat namin, nakikipark sa side namin ng street (sa kanila yung Lancer). Pinasementohan pa nga namin yung maliit na space between our front wall and the road para maisiksik ko dun yung kotse para wala akong mahahrangang ibang tao.
3. Again, I don't pick fights with any of my neighbors.
4. Our house is nowhere near a public school and isn't subject to heavy foot traffic.

Hindi porket sinusian, kup*l na. Minsan, pwedeng biktima ka lang talaga.

A possible suspect of mine is the owner of the Lancer parked on our side of the street. Pinagsabihan na namin dati na wag mag-park sa side namin kasi nakakaabala. Eto ginawa (kanya din yung Corolla):

Tapat parin ba ng bahay niyo yun pinaparadahan nung Altis mo diyan sa picture?

If so, ayos lang na andyan ka. Ganyan din sa village namin sa QC, kasama ko mga congressman dun sa village kaya malamang hanggang kalsada mga sasakyan nila sa dami

May mga taong masyado lang talaga mapilit. Kala mo perpekto sila kung maka kumento. Makikita mo sila rin tarantado sa kalsada.

Yeah, right! Ilang taon ka na ba nagd-drive? Saang driving school ka ba nag-enroll? Ito na nga ba sinasabi ko sa mga driving schools eh, tinuturuan lang nilang magpaandar ng kotse mga estudyante nila...

Tsaka sabagay, dahil village yan malamang may sarili kayong mundo dyan. Better talk to your assoc pres about the matter.

Teka, pareho ba kayong nakasampa sa sidewalk? Talagang gumawa ka pa ng yellow-black stripe na pang harang, anu yan nabili mo rin yung kalsada sa tapat ng bahay nyo?

And, squirting brake fluid to other people's car is different from parking in the streets. Parang ganito lang yan eh, pag binato ka ng bato, batuhin mo ng 2 tinapay at isunod mo yung bato...

[babynos01]

Diba pwede ka naman mag park sa tapat ng bahay mo? Maski subdivision yan or not?
Courtesy call lang naman kailangan dyan e. Kapag nakakadistorbo ka na, edi alisin mo.

It happened to me once. Yung nasa tapat namin may bisita, mag park daw in front of their house. Bago lang sila sa lugar namin, wala pang 3 buwan.
Eto si yabang pinapaalis yung car namin which is parked sa tapat ng bahay namin. Wala naman akong nakikitang mali sa ginawa ko. Oo, hindi karapatan yun, rather a privelege. Tapat ng bahay mo yun e. May right of way ka parin na magpark sa tapat ng house mo. Ayun, had a disscussion with him and he fell back. Nauna ako magpark in the first place, tapos paaalisin niya ako sa tapat ng bahay ko? Swerte niya ah

[adut]

Ser mawalang galang lang po pero ikaw ilang taon ka na ba nagdri drive at nagma may ari ng sasakyan? Ganito ba ang tinuturo sa iyo? Ang mag spray ng brake fluid pag hindi nakasundo? Pag hindi mo gusto ang inasal gagawa ka na lang ng kung ano anong bagay?

Ang pinag uusapan po dito eh kung ano ang gagawin ng TS sa nangyari, hindi yung punahin ang dahilan at punot dulo ng pangyayari dahil kahit isulat pa ni TS yung lahat ng detalye at ipost pa lahat ng pictures dito, hindi mo pa rin malalaman ang buong kuwento.
