There’s rich. There’s rude. And then there’s parking your luxury car in the striped access zone of a handicapped spot—without a placard. That’s what one BMW convertible driver did outside a Walmart, blocking the area meant for unloading wheelchairs.

One mom who was shopping with their son, clocked the violation immediately. “I looked, and there was no sign of a placard or handicapped tag,” she wrote. After stewing through their errands, they returned to find the car still parked illegally—and they decided to strike.

“I found a piece of paper, and left a note on his windshield,” she explained.

The note?

“SO SORRY – I did not mean to scrape your car with my wheelchair. I would leave my contact info, but you were illegally parked, blocking my van. So good luck buffing that out!”

The panic detail of shame in a handicapped space

Then the mom and her son parked nearby to watch. Eventually, the driver sauntered up to his BMW in his leather flip flops. She described him as “Very tanned, a bit older, with a little gray starting in his hair.”

“He saw the note, screamed ‘Oh, S—!’” the Redditor wrote. What followed was 20 minutes of frantic forensic dusting. The man rubbed and polished every inch of his paint job, clearly hunting for a scratch that didn’t exist.

Petty perfection, no damage done

There was no real scrape. No ticket. No tow. Just a dose of psychological warfare for a guy who thought the rules didn’t apply to him. And the internet ate it up.

“You are a true petty revenge warrior,” one commenter said. Another added, “This is the best type of petty revenge.”

The BMW driver probably didn’t learn a lesson about accessibility. But at least now he knows: even when parking like a jerk doesn’t cost you money it could still cost you peace of mind.
