Boston is putting the breaks on people's attempts to use everyday items to hold parking spots they've spent hours digging out from the snow. Anna Werner reports from Boston, where their removal is getting a chilly reception.

You can't save a parking spot during any other weather event. You can't save a spot when it's raining or when it's sunny, but people seem to think that they can save a spot after a snow storm just because they dug their car out. You had to dig yourself out because you wanted to go somewhere. That doesn't mean that you get to park there when you get back.

It's a public street. If there's a free spot, you should be able to take it. Park in your driveway that you cleared out. You choose to live there where it snows, you have to deal with it.

i would understand if the home came with driveways but as you can see these usually dont since they are right next to each other, so they should be entitled to atleast one car length spot

Martin Gomez Oh my god, you actually brought out the word, entitlement. That changes nothing. It's an public Street. Now if the city changed the rules and assigned 1 spot for each house. It's painted whatever color with a house number that the city did. I would support that. You did move into a location with no private parking. Who's fault is that? Yours!!!

Maybe people should recognize that no one has a right to drive or park on public roads, and that even if you shovel out a parking space, you don't own it.

That's pretty hard to do when there's another car parked right behind your truck. Many of the houses in Boston were built long before every one had a car, back in the horse and buggy days. That's why parking cars is so difficult in those areas. Add a snow storm ind the street becomes a cluster fuck. Not only do the residents of the street fight for space, you have out of towners also trying to park any where they can find an open spot. It's a catchers catch can situation. If you're caught in the wrong spot at the wrong time, expect to find damage to your car when you come back. Or some one will come out of one of the houses with a baseball bat aiming to crack your skull open because you took his spot.

This is an old South Philly trick. North Jersey too (Newark, Jersey City, Elizabeth, Hoboken, etc.). Remove those cones/lawnchairs at your own risk. Come back to find your car keyed up and your tires slashed. Part of the problem is that when idiots dig out their cars, instead of taking the minimal extra effort to throw the snow over the sidewalk, they simply pile it up into mounds on the street and make more parking spots unavailable.

I live in Chicago and as someone who wakes up at 4:30am to go to work, I happily pay my $170 garage covered parking fee every month. You already have problems looking for parking in the city, then in winter every curbside space becomes a premium due to plowing, no parking when it snows 2 inches, the endless mounts and the dibs. If you want a car just work harder and garage it.

They run out of places to dump the snow once it's in the truck, and the snow removal budget is underfunded so they don't have enough melters. Really it's a problem the city created for itself, and for years they were happy to step back and let residents solve it for them. But a few too many people have gotten their jaws knocked off in fights over space savers, so now Mayor Marty is feeling compelled to do something.

I wish they would do this in my neighborhood. All my neighbors are assholes, they steal con edison cones and put them on a spot infront their house. There's these specific neighbors I hate most. They live one house away and have one of the few driveways on my block, but they dont use it ever, they have a big chruch van and 3 other cars and they asshole park with the church van so that later they can move it and park their other cars. If they just used their drive way there would easily be at least 5 more parking spots on the whole block, and that's not an exhagerration, they always take up extra space.

The bottom line is this: If you're parking on the street, the space doesn't belong to you. I sympathize with the fact that you spent a lot of time clearing the space so you could get out, but that's only because you had to clear the space to get out anyway. Otherwise you could have just left the car parked there until the snow melted.

after living in the Midwest for 20 years the city needs to come up with a plan to remove all of the snow from a given area that way there's nothing to fight over? Our area would say the north-south streets will be done on Tuesday and then on Wednesday east-west streets will be done all away to the curb. All vehicles had to be removed say by 9 AM at of this given area otherwise be towed. Yes after initial snowstorm flowers are crazy busy but give it a couple days and then they would execute this plan. We were just south of Lake Michigan and they did this for many years. Luck
