It turned out it was the pesky neighbour who was in the wrong

The first of the series of notes boldly said: "RESPECT YOUR NEIGHBOUR. Stop parking in their paid, assigned spot. It's just rude!"
But the driver decided not to move her car, since she was sure she was in fact in the correct space.
That's when the mystery neighbour began leaving more notes.
"I've tried to be kind but you ignored my note," the second said.
"You could've been towed a week ago. PLEASE let me park in the spot I've had for years. THX [sic]."
And the neighbour continued their tirade with the next note, which read: "NOT YOUR SPOT PLEASE STOP taking it! THANK YOU."
"I PAY FOR THIS SPOT and would like to use it. Please and thank you," they added in a fourth.
After sharing the notes on Reddit, the driver decided to check with the real estate office to see if they were in the wrong or not.
But they confirmed she was parking in the right space, which was allocated to her flat.
They explained: "I took their notes off and placed a note on my own windshield saying something to the effect of 'I checked with the office and this is my spot. You should check with them too.'"

After leaving the note they noticed it had vanished from their neighbour's car, and no new notes appeared.
At this point, fellow Reddit users were left baffled as to why the neighbour thought the spot was theirs.
The consensus was that the neighbour must've been parking in the wrong space for years and either didn't realise or forgot about it.
"If I was wrong and did this, I would be so embarrassed and offer up an apology and probably a gift," one person commented on the viral post.
"The irony of being mad someone took the spot that you've actually been the one stealing," a second added.
But not everyone was convinced it was such an honest mistake - even if the notes were slightly passive aggressive.
Some thought the neighbour knew the space wasn't theirs, but since they'd been in it so long they didn't want to leave.
"They just feel entitled to this spot even though it isn't assigned to them," one said.
"Seems like someone just parked there for free since the complex hadn't sold it.
"Now they're sad to see it go and were hoping that you were parking there for free, too," another mused.

Best used cars with biggest price drops in 2025 revealed – including three Ford models £1,000s cheaper than last year
Includes one of the world's best selling cars BAG A BARGAIN Best used cars with biggest price drops in 2025 revealed – including three Ford models £1,000s cheaper than last year Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A NUMBER of the nation's most popular used cars has seen significant price reductions this year - including a sought-after luxury EV. Data from AA Cars reveals some of the best deals drivers can find on vehicles aged three and four years old, reflecting increased stock and softened demand in the used car market. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A number of the nation's most popular used cars has seen significant price reductions this year Credit: Getty 3 This included the Tesla Model 3, with four-year-old examples seeing a steep decline Credit: Getty 3 Models by Toyota and Ford also make up the list Credit: Getty Experts at AA Cars believe buyers now have more choice and negotiating power compared to just a year ago. Leading the list is the Tesla Model 3, which has experienced a dramatic 27% drop in average price year-on-year. The sleek EV, one of the world's best-selling cars, has fallen from £21,905 in 2024 to £15,993 in 2025, saving buyers an impressive £5,912. This sharp depreciation highlights a broader trend in falling EV prices, driven by increased supply, the introduction of more affordable models and the maturation of the used EV market. In second place is the Ford Ranger, a rugged pickup truck available in both single and double cab configurations. Its price has dropped by 18%, offering buyers savings of more than £4,000. Another standout luxury vehicle is the Range Rover Evoque, down 16%, with average prices falling from £24,714 to £20,712. Other notable four-year-old models include the Ford Kuga, Ford Focus, BMW X1 and Toyota Yaris, all showing reductions of 10 to 13%. For three-year-old vehicles, the Ford Ranger and Range Rover Evoque again lead the savings, with price cuts of 17 to 18%. SUVs such as the Volvo XC40, Ford Puma and Ford Kuga continue to offer excellent value for families, while smaller cars like the Fiat 500, Toyota Yaris and Ford Focus remain ideal for those looking to be a little more economical. Watch Tesla test self-driving cars on London streets as it passes famous landmarks One clear trend emerging is the growing appeal of affordable EVs and hybrids. As the cost gap between traditional and greener cars narrows, more drivers are considering making the switch. However, buyers are urged to shop wisely, ensuring vehicles are thoroughly inspected and come with verified service histories. AA Cars recommends choosing dealers with AA Inspected accreditation or opting for independent inspections starting at £99 to ensure peace of mind. James Hosking, Director of AA Cars, said: 'With many three-year-old cars now up to 20% cheaper than they were this time last year, drivers in the market for a used vehicle are in a strong position to find real value. 'This sharp correction in prices, especially on popular models, means buyers can now access premium features and newer designs at far more affordable prices. 'We're seeing a particularly favourable landscape for those upgrading from smaller or older models. 'The combination of increased stock and softened demand is giving consumers far more choice and better negotiating power than they've had in years. 'There are also encouraging signs for those considering electric or hybrid options, with more used low-emission vehicles entering the market and bringing prices down. As the cost gap between traditional and greener cars narrows, making the switch is becoming a more realistic option for many. 'Still, it's important to be well-informed. Shoppers should take time to compare listings, check what a fair market price looks like for their preferred spec, and factor in how things like mileage and vehicle condition could affect value over time. 'That's why it's so important to buy from a trusted dealer who can offer reassurances like a detailed inspection, verified service history, and third-party approvals. These are the things that help motorists buy with confidence.'

Major driving law change for all Brits could see you LOSE your licence from this autumn in huge shake-up
The rule is one of four to be introduced in a new bid to improve road safety GEAR SHIFT Major driving law change for all Brits could see you LOSE your licence from this autumn in huge shake-up Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WARNING has been issued to all UK drivers after proposals for a major new law could see countless licences be revoked. Drivers have been told that breaking a rule which was once treated as a slap on the wrist could now have far more serious repercussions. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The new rule could be introduced by the end of the year Credit: Getty This comes after ministers have started preparing a new-safety package for this autumn. Among the proposals is a harsher punishment for breaking the seatbelt rule. Motorists could soon face points on their licence, rather than a fine, for failing to abide by this rule. While nothing is law yet, officials have flagged tougher penalties as a priority, reports experts at Showplates World. If this is approved after a consultations, points could follow in a matter of months. The current punishment for failing to wear a seatbelt is typically a £100 penalty. But, as it stands, the penalty is non-endorsable - meaning you won't be issued points on your licence. This is what ministers hope to change in the new autumn package, in a new bid to crack down on the issue. The UK would be following in Northern Ireland's footsteps, where a seatbelt offence can bring both a fine and 3 penalty points. Early signals suggest the tougher penalty would apply to drivers and adult passengers, bringing the UK closer to Northern Ireland's approach. Major New Driving Laws for Summer & Fall 2025: What You Need to Know The plan sits alongside other safety measures officials hope to tighten. Motorists can also expect officials to crack down on drink and drug driving, and fitness-to-drive checks. Timings will depend on the consultation and parliamentary process, however the direction of travel is very clear. Motoring experts at Showplates World are encouraging drivers to make changes to their driving habits now. A spokesperson said: "If you skip your seatbelt, you're gambling with your safety and, very soon, your licence. "Points for no-belt offences are on the table. "Our advice is simple: belt up on every journey, every seat, every time - and make sure your passengers do too." Experts are also encouraging that you make buckling up an automatic habit. Additional advice includes sorting appropriate child seats, and planning for tech enforcement, as more forces use cameras to spot unbelted occupants. Under the proposed change, all adults, aged 14 and over, will be deemed responsible for wearing their own seatbelt, and can expect to face points for not abiding by the rule. For those under 14, the driver is legally responsible for correct restraints. There are a handful of narrow exemptions to the rule, which include reversing, certain emergency service duties, and medical exemptions with proper certification. These exemptions do not extend to convenience or comfort, and motorists should assume a belt must be worn unless they clearly fall into a listed exemption. The Sun reported earlier this month that UK motorists could face four major changes to driving in a major shakeup. According to The Times, these proposed changes reflect stricter measures to improve road safety and introduce tougher penalties for rule violations, which will include a reduction of the drink-drive limit and older drivers being required to take mandatory eye tests. These amendments, set to be introduced to help tackle persistent safety issues on UK roads and reduce the number of fatalities and serious injuries, have been put forward by UK Government ministers and led by the Department for Transport (DfT). They represent the biggest reform to driving laws since the Road Safety Act of 2006 - a major piece of legislation which aimed to improve road safety in the UK. In addition to tougher penalties for failing to wear a seatbelt, the drink-drive limit could also be lowered, and measures may be introduced to ensure drivers over 70 are fit to drive. Tougher penalties may also be introduced for uninsured drivers.

‘Everything ready' – F1 circuit dropped from calendar in 2021 and loved by Lewis Hamilton looking to return
It comes after the country struck an agreement with another major motorsport Por some more 'Everything ready' – F1 circuit dropped from calendar in 2021 and loved by Lewis Hamilton looking to return Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A FORMULA ONE return could be on the cards for a fan favourite track in 2027. Portugal's Algarve International Circuit in Portimao was dropped from the race calendar in 2021 following the Covid-19 pandemic. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 A favourite track of Lewis Hamilton could be on the cards for an F1 return in 2027 Credit: Reuters 4 The Portuguese PM has said everything is ready to host F1 at the Algarve International Circuit again Credit: Getty 4 Hamilton won two races there in 2020 and 2021, including his record-breaking 92nd win Credit: Getty The circuit had stepped up for the shortened 2020 and 2021 season amid F1 chiefs' pandemic reshuffle, before a return to the normal schedule. Both races were won by seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, with the 2020 race marking his record-breaking 92nd win in F1 to put him ahead of Michael Schumacher. And while the Brit has been struggling at Ferrari this season, his spirits may perk up to learn that one of his favourite tracks could be on its way back to the calendar. Portuguese Prime Minister Luís Montenegro said the country was prepared to host an F1 race again in 2027. READ MORE IN SPORT Thrown away Luke Littler's incredible 222-game streak finally comes to an end Speaking at the Festa do Pontal this week, the Social Democratic Party leader revealed a plan for government financial aid to see F1 return to Portimao. The track is already playing host to MotoGP events for 2025 and 2026, which is why 2027 has been earmarked. Montenegro said: "One of the circumstances that most contributes to the promotion of this region is the major events. "We secured the MotoGP, the flagship event of world motorcycling, for 2025 and 2026. BEST ONLINE CASINOS - TOP SITES IN THE UK "And I can tell you that we have everything ready to formalise the return of Formula 1 to Algarve the year after, in 2027. 'These events require some financial effort on the part of the government, but they provide a return, both direct and indirect, through promotion, that is truly worthwhile." Toto Wolff defends F1 driver Lewis Hamilton after 'useless' comments SunSport have contacted F1 for comment. MotoGP is also owned by the owners of F1, Liberty Media, which could be a factor which counts in its favour over a return. Portugal had been a mainstay on the F1 calendar between 1984 and 1996, with the Estoril Circuit outside of Lisbon hosting 13 grand prix races. New race tracks for F1 are on the cards in the coming years. Next season will see the debut of the new Madring circuit in Madrid, replacing the iconic Imola circuit after its final race earlier this season. Meanwhile, Thailand looks set to be announced as a new host nation with a street race in Bangkok after the government approved an £880m bid for a race there, targeted for 2028. The new Qiddiya Speed Park in Saudi Arabia could be a new venue before the end of the decade, with 2028 also being targeted, as it would replace the Jeddah Circuit in use since 2021. A race in Africa is also gaining momentum with talks underway, but it remains a long way off. The introduction of these new circuits means some popular tracks are under threat. Max Verstappen's home race of Zandvoort will no longer be on the calendar after next season, while the Belgian Grand Prix will only feature in alternating years from 2027 through to 2031. F1 is currently on its summer shutdown following the Hungarian Grand Prix at the start of the month. The next race to take place will be the Dutch Grand Prix on August 31.
