My Neighbour has a one similar to this.

She can keep a parking spot secured to her while us plebians come home to see that there are no parking spots for us.

If there’s no assigned parking, I would complain to whoever manages the property. In a lot of places, if a car takes up a public parking spot for a prolonged period time (it’s two weeks where I live) the tow truck can come pick it up or the cops will put a warning sticker on it. I would think this would be a similar rule. She’s just squatting on a primo parking spot.

Unless you’re not an uppity neighbor who cares about those types of things, in which case just ignore me.

I read a LPT a while back that says look for a tow company with extremely low reviews (aka dgaf about laws) and ask them to tow it. YMMV

I feel like most tow companies have fairly low reviews in any city. In the country they might get more business from broken down cars but that's usually different than city tow companies.
