Parking vigilante painting lines, leaving notes for Seattle neighbors

A vigilante parking enforcer has been painting lines and leaving crazy notes for neighbors apparently not meeting parking standards.

Seattle Police report someone has painted parking lines along a one-block stretch of Whitman Ave N. near 41st Street, and last week when a car was parked outside these unofficial lines, the rogue enforcer left an angry note.

“Please do everyone a favor on this block, either learn how to park your car like a normal human being or put a bullet in your face, you worthless piece of [expletive]. Go [expletive] yourself and have a bad day. Sincerely, Everyone,” said the note left on the vehicle.

The woman handed the note over to police and told them this wasn’t the first time she’d received a note about her parking. She told police who she thought might be responsible.

Seattle police say if you’re looking for a productive solution to a parking problem, check out the Seattle Police Department and Seattle Department of Transportation‘s parking websites, or you could always apply to be a parking enforcement officer.
