A frequent visitor to Hougang was shocked at one driver\u2019s \u201catrocious\u201d parking.<\/p>\n
On Aug 3, Stomper Randy <\/strong>shared photos and a video of a stationary car in the carpark near Block 955A Hougang Avenue 9.<\/p>\n The car appears to be parked outside the demarcated white parking lot, which is meant for non-residents like Randy himself, who was visiting his fianc\u00e9e.<\/p>\n \u201cSaw this car since Aug 2, 9am, with a parking ticket from 1am,\u201d shared the Stomper, who added that the car was still at its location when he took the photos at 3pm on Aug 3.<\/p>\n \u201cApart from the atrocious parking<\/a>, I wonder why the owner left the car for so long,\u201d Randy said.<\/p>\n \u201cCould this be a case of DUI (driving under the influence) or an abandoned or de-registered car?\u201d he asked, noting that the owner of the vehicle had not returned to move it.<\/p>\n In that period of time, Randy shared that someone had also positioned a green bin near the car to warn other drivers about it. \u201cSo we don\u2019t mistake that car for a reversing car,\u201d the Stomper said.<\/p>\n Upon further reflection, he felt it was both \u201cabsurd and amazing\u201d that the driver had managed to make his way up to Level 3A of the parking lot without doing any damage even while it seemed to have \u201cfound difficulty\u201d in parking within its lot.<\/p>\n Randy noted that the car had at least three parking tickets<\/a> tucked under its windshield wiper at one point, and wondered if the owner had forgotten where their car was parked.<\/p>\n \u201cIt seems like Hougang, Punggol and Nex area is cursed with such drivers,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n He subsequently reported the car via the OneService app twice, and was told that a parking warden was activated.<\/p>\n Stomp understands that following multiple summonses, the car is no longer parked improperly as of Aug 8.<\/p>\n According to HDB\u2019s website<\/a>, drivers who park beyond the boundaries of a parking lot in a manner that causes obstruction will incur the following fines:<\/p>\n HDB may impose different fine amounts or take legal action on a case-by-case basis.<\/p>\n Have something to say?
