I am not talking about cars that violate whatever the law is, I'm referring to legally parked cars. Nobody has yet to explain what the police will do when you call them for a legally parked car in a legal parking space.

I fully understand that in some communities there is no parking for one hour each night so they can tow anybody who leaves their car. I also fully understand that others say after three, five, seven, thirty days, whatever the car is considered abandoned and can be towed.

If a car is legally parked in front of somebody's house, not violating any of the local laws for resident permits, being in one spot for too long, no parking times, etc, what exactly will the police do when everybody in the thread calls them?

Of course if a car is parked illegally by being there too long, not having proper permits, they can, and should remove it.

But what right do they have to remove a perfectly legally parked car from a public parking space because somebody thinks that spot is theirs because it is in front of their house?
