The post was made by Reddit user SpectreGBR and is titled: ‘Every day I come home and someone is in my private parking space, going to make my response more ridiculous every time.

‘What should my next stage of escalation be?’

A picture on the post shows a Mercedes A-Class parked in a space with a private parking sign tucked under its rear wiper.

A white Skoda can be seen behind the Mercedes blocking it in.

People chimed in on what the Reddit user should do to solve the problem.

Poppingcandy75 said: “I want more of these signs, one of their bonnet, one next to that, anywhere you can put them, you do.

“Then just when they think they’ve removed them all they check their glove compartment and I want one there as well.”

Red_headed_stallion said: “Get 4-5inch diameter PVC pipe about 4 feet tall, paint it bright yellow with a base so it stands up and you could even put fake bolts that make it look bolted to the ground.

“I bet they would not try to move it. When you leave and return just move it.”

TeuchterK said: “I’ve seen a smart car completely covered in cling film before.

“This is obvs a bigger car and would take a bit more effort but would get the message across.”

While mattyprice4004 said: “When I had this, I just parked right up to the back of them (we’re talking 1cm gap) with the aid of a neighbour, then I immediately had a couple of beers so I couldn’t move the car until the next day.

“When the grumpy chap came expecting an easy exit, he was politely asked to come back tomorrow (after an education on why you don’t park in someone else’s space).

“He called the police, who declared it a civil matter.”
