[UPDATE] I'm 99% sure the blue Tesla villain is now illegally hogging the ADA charger.
Right before I even had a chance to complain, our management sent out a community-wide courtesy email about EV etiquette and handicap parking rules. It seemed to work initially, as the car disappeared for a short while—whether by coincidence or because of the email, I'm not sure.
But they’re back today, and I strongly suspect they’ve doubled down on their audacity.
They are parked in the B1 ADA-accessible Tesla charging space, but they’ve intentionally pulled in head-first. They have always backed in previously, so this feels like a blatant attempt to hide their dashboard from a quick glance, making it much harder for staff or other residents to easily check for a handicap placard.
I know this car's history: they previously hogged a regular charging stall for over a week without plugging in. I haven't walked up to the front to verify the placard because I don't want my face recorded on their Sentry Mode, but everything about this screams "illegal occupancy."
Seeing them potentially block a space meant for residents with disabilities, especially when our building is already short on chargers, is infuriating.
My roommate suggests I just ignore it for my own sanity. But I’m struggling with a dilemma: do I just close my eyes to this potential violation to protect my mental health, or do I keep pushing to hold them accountable?
Has anyone else reached this point of frustration with a neighbor? How do you cope when management's generic emails don't stop the behavior, and you're just left to deal with the anger?
