AITA for telling my roommate his car can't live in our driveway anymore?
me (25M), two roommates from the car meet scene. we rent a house with a two car driveway and street parking that's a nightmare. one of them (24M) has a project that hasn't moved in fourteen months. no engine in it since january. it takes one of the two spaces. so me and the other roommate rotate the second space and one of us parks three blocks away every night. i brought it up in march, may and july. every time it's "i'm getting to it." last week i told him it's out by october or i'm having it towed, which i can do because the lease is in my name. he says i'm using the lease as a weapon and that i knew he was a car guy when we moved in. i did. i thought that meant cars that run. the other roommate agrees with me completely and has said nothing to him, which is its own thing i'll deal with later.
What People Are Saying
NTA, though drop the towing line if you can. Say "out by October" and mean it. Threatening the tow makes it about power and he'll dig in.
one of you parks three blocks away EVERY NIGHT for over a year. that's the sentence he needs to hear said back to him.
NTA. Three warnings across five months and a date attached. That's more process than most landlords give.
yeah the tow thing came out because i was annoyed. october is the actual ask.
the silent roommate agreeing with you privately is so real. he'll keep agreeing privately forever.
roommate keeps setting thermostat to 65 like we live in antarctica, war or no war bro

NTA. Car guy here. Fourteen months with no engine isn't a project, it's storage, and he's storing it in your parking space for free.
