Homeowner's solution to avoid people parking in his driveway
Some people have no respect for a person's driveway...This homeowner took matters into his own hands...
It can be frustrating having to deal with people who park in your driveway. Signage doesn't make a difference either, as people read it and choose to ignore it.
One homeowner decided to stop people from parking in his driveway without permission. His approach was vengeful and had all the makings of a good prank.
In the video shared on X, we see people parking in the driveway. But to their surprise, they are greeted by a motion-censored sprinkler.
It might seem like a childish way to handle a 'simple' issue, but sometimes, a splash of water can teach people a lesson. Even if they didn't learn anything, at the very least, we know the water refreshed them.
Watch on X here.
Mildly amusing: this Aussie dude got fed up with people parking in his driveway so he installed a motion-activated sprinkler. pic.twitter.com/vJ8YKveSxo

One person wrote, "I support this, but maybe a more visible 'no parking' sign would be fair?"
Upon viewing the video again, it did look like there was signage at the gate, but perhaps it wasn't visible to the drivers.
Some people suggested that the owner sat around activating the sprinkler himself each time he saw a new driver.
What would you have done if you faced the same problem?
