Parking On Streets

Posted in: Hamilton Highlands

 

     I hope that people will see this that insist on parking on top of their neighbors mailboxes. They probably do not realize that by doing this they are causing their neighbor not to get their mail delivered. This has happened to us before. It is a frequent occurence on Hackworth Street, I do not know how many people live in this one home but the parking is out of control. I did not realize we had a neighborhood that is  turning into a motel . I notice the same thing on other streets also. Please be couteous of your neighbors and block your own mailbox !!!

Thank you for bringing up this issue! and, i totally agree with you. I have also not received my mail because of cars & junk cars sitting on our road in front of our boxes. I've called the PostMaster, & others, only being told to call police. It is common sense AND respect not to park in front of others mail boxes. seems to me our "association" could alert these ones that chose to do this issue?

I also have to agree with this one. There are a lot of cars parked out on the streets when there shouldn't be. It makes it very hard to get in and out  of the neighbor hood also. I can't tell you how many times I've had to swerve from hitting someone because someone parks there car right along the bends. Do people not realize that this causes blind spots and people can see over there cars. I also agree with the mailboxe issue. This is something that we need to en-force. Maybe get some parking signs and place them in the neighbor hood.
I complete agree with this. Thank you for saying something. Smile When I come out of my own driveway on Tera Alta, I have to make sure I miss 3 cars every single day, morning and evening, that are parked around my driveway on the street. Specifically, one of the houses beside me has 3-4 cars consistently at their house and they don't even use their garage. I can't stand it! They are always parking so they block my mailbox instead of their own. I don't want to be rude and make them move, but it's getting so old. Frown I'm always afraid that I'm not going to see someone coming down our street because of the cars blocking my view and end up hitting them. I know it's not feasible, but I wish there was a rule that you cannot park on the street.
