I feel like Uchiyamada right now


No. The trees were planted by the city on people's property near the edge. One of my neighbors had to repair their roof four times in five years because a tree keeps falling on them. The city trims a few branches and then calls it a day.City tree? Was it urban?
The car that got damaged WAS a new car. It still drives, but the window is smashed, the tail lights are broken, no idea on the internal damage, and the paint job is has deep scratches. And I'm not sure if the charging point is damaged or if there is any internal damage on the battery.SICK! Deployed airbags means a high chance of a new car!
no, it means the value of the destroyed car which is no where near a new car.SICK! Deployed airbags means a high chance of a new car!
Maybe later. Looking at the damage just makes me mad as hell right now. I'm stressed as hell right now. I was playing City of the Wolves and I hear the wind go outside a little bit. Then I get a knock on my door from the neighbors telling me "hey, a tree fell on your car."Well, pics?
I wish my car was that unscathed.Expectations:

Can the neighbor petition to trim the tree more or cut it?No. The trees were planted by the city on people's property near the edge. One of my neighbors had to repair their roof four times in five years because a tree keeps falling on them. The city trims a few branches and then calls it a day.
I'm sure the city will pay you for damages.
AFTER six months of jerking you around and you have to threaten litigation
The trees have rot and termites in them. It fell of its own accord. No storm, just some wind. The city put trees on people's property when the neighborhood was created. The city is responsible for maintaining them as the owners of the property are not allowed to remove the trees without the consent of the city. The neighborhood has already complained about the trees because this has happened with the trees so far.The tree just fell on its own or a product of storm or something ?
Why would city be liable.
He's didn't park in a forest and he's not complaining about his car getting dirty. The city planted trees and therefore has to maintain them. A reasonable person is led to believe that the tree should be safe to park near.Brilliant strategy
Leave your car outside like it's invincible, then act absolutely stunned when gravity and a tree team up
Nature's been dropping hints for centuries my guy
Nice try, but getting robbed walking down the street isn't the same as watching your neighborhood turn into a live-action game of 'Tree vs. House' and still pretending like you didn't see it coming. Look at the post above mineHe's didn't park in a forest and he's not complaining about his car getting dirty. The city planted trees and therefore has to maintain them.

Let's use your logic: somebody complains about getting robbed walking down the street. Human nature's been dropping hints for centuries my guy
Did you not read how the neighborhood is already complaining to the city to do something about the trees and is trying to get rid of them, but the city is refusing to get rid of them? Or the fact that we aren't allowed to remove or trim the trees because they're city property? I've already complained to the city about the trees multiple times, but they won't do anything to each individual tree until AFTER an accident has happened. If the city is going to plant trees everywhere they should maintain their trees. Nobody is against trees or green spaces or shade, but people tend to get pissed off when the city doesn't do any maintenance on something that could cause catastrophic damage.Nice try, but getting robbed walking down the street isn't the same as watching your neighborhood turn into a live-action game of 'Tree vs. House' and still pretending like you didn't see it coming.

At some point, 'reasonable' turns into 'willfully blind.'
If five houses on your block got robbed and you left your door wide open, that's not victimhood, it's a choice
And I was just making fun of OP. It wasn't that serious
Cool story, but knowing the citys dragging its feet and that they won't touch a tree until it goes full Final Destination isnt exactly comfortingDid you not read how the neighborhood is already complaining to the city to do something about the trees and is trying to get rid of them, but the city is refusing to get rid of them?

If you've watched car after house after porch get wrecked and your best move is still 'park and pray,' that's not just the city's failure, it's yours too. At some point, selfpreservation has to kick in before the paperwork does
Wild how everyone's suddenly allergic to personal responsibility. City's clearly negligent, no debate! But when disaster becomes routine, playing the victim card starts to look more like a strategy than an accident
Ah, yes. Truly tragic, forced at gunpoint to live in a tree-lined suburb, utterly powerless to make any decision other than parking directly under the same ticking time bombs that have already crushed half the neighborhood.![]()
Now that you explained it to me, I clearly see that it is my fault for deciding to live in a neighborhood where trees are. How ignorant of me to expect trees to be properly maintained especially when I would be fined and or arrested if I had those trees removed. Next time I see a tree, I should move to an apartment complex where some property management company will raise the rent every renewal. But there's a tree there too. I guess I should leave and pay those moving costs again too.
Sounds like it. Let me walk five blocks with my cane to make sure I avoid them city trees.It sounds like he thinks you should park outside of your neighborhood, and just walk to your house.
This dude is totally a tree. I see right through this charade.Ah, yes. Truly tragic, forced at gunpoint to live in a tree-lined suburb, utterly powerless to make any decision other than parking directly under the same ticking time bombs that have already crushed half the neighborhood.
What else could you have done? Besides literally anything else. But sure, let's blame geography and pretend foresight is a luxury
The city's negligence is real, but pretending you had no way to protect your property just sounds like choosing to ignore the problem until it smashed your car

That sucks…also that's a great car (regardless of the hate). Hyundai makes fantastic ev's.Every time I look at it, I feel pissed off.
