Today, I received a notice that if I don't move the abandoned vehicle from outside my house it will be repossessed at my expense. My car isn't abandoned. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I got a call from a police department saying that if I didn't move my car from a store's parking lot within the next 15 minutes, they were going to tow it and charge me for the fee. I was at work and the reason I parked it there is because it started smoking and almost caught fire. FML
Today, my car was towed for the second time in front of my own house. They tried to tell me it was because they didn't think I lived there anymore. The person who had it towed had just spoken to me not three hours before. FML
Today, I found out that my Mom had taken out a loan out on my car from the repo man taking my car away. FML
Today, I got home from work to find an eviction notice taped to my door, stating that I was a nuisance and had 30 days to vacate the property. I live at home with my parents. FML
Today, I received an overdue bill for my now nonexistent car that caught fire in July. FML
Today, my car is so unreliable that I received a letter saying that it had been kicked out of the American Automobile Association. FML
Today, my boss reported to the police that a suspicious car has been parked outside the store late at night. I walked outside and my car was gone. He had my car towed. FML
Today, I got a parking ticket in the mail. I don't have a car. FML
Today, I found out that the badly-parked car without MOT, that I chose not to report, has been moved and now blocking my car in. I need to get to the shops and have no idea who the driver is. FML
Today, I rented a car via an app for a family function. Turns out it was in default and was repossessed while I was there. I had to ride three hours back home with my girlfriend's dad, who probably thinks I don't pay my bills. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

As long as you have valid license plates on it, they can't say it's abandoned.

Why do i feel that this isn't because the car looks shitty but because She doesn't go anywhere. If a car remains in the same space for too long thats why people could think its abandoned. OP just start moving your car around every other day or so. :-)

I drive my car to work everyday, so it gets enough use. It just looks like crap.

It just means you don't get out enough or you're not out long enough for them to notice you're gone.

Jusf move the rustbucket around where there is clear proof it has been moved, and don't park it in the same spot. Eyesore or not, as long as the car is in current use, and all tags and plates are current, then they can do nothing. Laws only protect them with abandoned and illegal cars. As long as it's legal, they can't do crap, as it's personal property, not part of any HOA or apartment organization.

Actually HOA's can cite you for 'eyesores' even if it is personal property items

Whats a HOA ? And why would anyone join one, If your'e not in one tell them to F off, now if's it a township/county entity telling you, as long as you have everything payed off/up to date tell them to F off too.

HOA is the home owners association which some neighborhoods posses. Basically a group of elitist bitches who whenever your grass isn't perfectly kept or your car isn't parked right then they can threaten you with fines.

Sorry, but reaaally, 31? If's???!

Also 31--you don't really "join" an HOA. Certain areas have HOA fees that are mandatory; if you want to live in that location (whether it be a condo or a subdivision), you have abide by the HOA rules and pay the HOA fees. These fees go toward things like maintenance if there's a community pool or playground, maybe updating sidewalks, etc. Many of them have very strict rules. One near where I live has a rule that cars must be parked in garages & garage doors have to stay closed. Rules like those could have to do with this FML.

Tell them that your car is vintage. It's a collector's edition.

Maybe you ought to prop it up on your lawn with really pimped-out cinder blocks.

If they aren't bedazzled, then you're doing it wrong.

#22, the ones I'm jonesing for are bedazzled, bejeweled and googly-eyed ;) I've got a Gucci tarp and Louis Vuitton duct tape for the windows.

Don't forget about the Chanel #22 aroma of cat piss and old water.

Call them and tell them It's not abandoned, because a pack of homeless people live in it.

My neighbor had this problem. Another neighbor(read bitch) called the city claiming that his van was abandoned. He was out of work and the van stayed in the same location for a few weeks. If the vehicle doesn't move from its spot on the street every 14 days it can considered abandoned. You'll have to move it every week or so to avoid the issue.
