What to Do If You Need to Ask the Car Owner to Move Their Vehicle
2 Answers
If your car is blocked, first get out and check the other vehicle's windshield and surrounding areas for any contact information left by the owner. If found, simply call the number directly. Some car owners leave their phone numbers on their vehicles to facilitate contact when they obstruct others. However, while enjoying the convenience of having a move-car number plate, many fail to realize the severity of personal information leakage. Therefore, most people prioritize their privacy and avoid placing contact details on the windshield. In such cases, you can also call the traffic police hotline at 122 or 12122. By providing the license plate number, the authorities can notify the owner to move the vehicle. This is the most common method for requesting vehicle relocation.
If a car is blocking my way and needs to be moved, I would first walk around the vehicle to check if the owner has left a small card or note on the windshield or window with a phone number. Many people have this habit, allowing me to directly call the owner to come and move the car. If I can't find any contact information, I would take out my phone and open a local car-moving app like the 12123 service to search for the contact details by entering the license plate number. Some cities have official platforms that allow one-click calling, which is very convenient. If this happens in a residential parking space, it’s even simpler—just go to the property management office and tell the security guard the license plate number, and they will help contact the owner to resolve the issue. Throughout the process, I would remain polite and avoid getting upset, as everyone makes parking mistakes sometimes. To avoid similar inconveniences in the future, I would suggest that everyone leave contact information on their car or register their details on the DMV app to make it easier for others to reach out for moving the car. This method is reliable and considerate, solving the problem quickly.
