'Like Signing Yourself to Crash Out Every Morning:' Woman Moves to Brooklyn. Then She Gets a Car
"Owning a car in Brooklyn is like signing yourself up to crash out every single day, honestly,"
"Because make this make sense. All he had to do was move up just a little bit, and this could have been a whole [expletive] second parking,"
"Then you have this [expletive] here who owns, like, four different taxis on this block and keeps the same two parking spots all the time because he's just constantly switching out his [expletive] cars,"
"I'm not moving, so he's gonna have to figure out a way to go around me,"
Brooklyn's street layout cannot support the city's current car volume, producing heavy congestion and scarce parking. A resident faces daily 'crash out' parking struggles as vehicles block or monopolize spaces. Examples include an SUV occupying two spots, a single individual rotating multiple taxis to hold the same two spots, and a motorcycle taking up excessive space. The resident sometimes blocks vehicles to prevent spot reclamation, creating confrontations. These parking behaviors—intentional spot-saving, vehicle rotation, oversize parking—reduce available spots and aggravate drivers, prompting many to consider or rely on public transit instead of maintaining a car.
