What to Do When Unable to Contact the Owner of a Car Parked at the Entrance?
2 Answers
If you cannot contact the owner of a car parked at the entrance, you can call 114. Here are detailed methods to contact the owner: 1. Call 114: If the vehicle is legally operated, it is usually registered. You can then call 114, provide the specific location, color, model, and license plate number of the vehicle, and 114 will directly transfer the call to the owner's phone, allowing you to contact the owner directly for moving the car. 2. Call 122 or 110: 122 is a dedicated traffic hotline. You can report the vehicle's license plate number, model, color, and parking location to the traffic department, which will then notify the owner to move the car after verification. If the obstructing vehicle is not parked in a regular parking lot and does not cooperate, the traffic department may directly tow the car away. 3. Call the insurance company's customer service: If the above two methods still fail to contact the owner, you can try to find out which insurance company the car's insurance was purchased from. Then call the customer service of this insurance company and mention some issues related to insurance claims.
A few days ago, the delivery truck at my shop was blocked at the entrance. I tried three methods: first, I walked around the car to check if there was a phone number note on the windshield, but unfortunately, there wasn’t one; then, I took a photo of the license plate and posted it in the neighborhood group chat to ask if anyone knew the owner, but after waiting for half an hour, there was no response; finally, I directly called 122 to contact the traffic police, who helped track down the owner’s information through the license plate and made the contact. The whole process took over an hour, but it was better than just waiting. I suggest everyone keep a temporary phone number sign in their car to avoid wasting others’ time.
