You don’t know the dynamics on my block ( I don’t live in Brooklyn), and how unmenshlech some very young people have been all too often. This weather does bring out the worst in people. Very often, I am unable to GET into my driveway, because some kid (and worse, some adult on his way to minyan) has thoughtlessly parked in such a way blocking my driveway enough, that it’s impossible to get over the mound of snow next to us. Now, not only had he taken my dug out spot, but also prevents me from parking in my owned spot. I have never, ever done that to anyone. The woman next door to me is even older than I am, and has the same problem. It’s frum people doing this.
Whether or not someone has a legal right to the street parking, is not up for debate. I understand your point. But that which is legal, we all know is not necessarily ethically or morally correct. Think about some of the marriage laws which have been passed recently.
I think that there could be an inyan of hasogas gevul here. I am not asking my LOR if that is so, because I refrain from doing it to others. I just hope people who have been guilty of this, will give it some thought, and try to avoid this, for a couple of days after a storm. That’s all. Thank you, for your insight and input, which was expressed respectfully.
