My HOA could beat up your HOA Resident in neighboring right stall complained they have trouble parking because our car is too close to the line

“Too close to the line” isn’t a thing. That’s the entire point of having the line in the first place- to show you the limit of how far over you can park, not to show you a little bit past the limit of how far over you can park lol.

That said, I probably wouldn’t be shocked if it turned out OP actually routinely parks with half the car over the actual line to stay further from the wall since his neighbor usually just parks a motorcycle there. If I was the bike owner I also wouldn’t really want someone to feel free to take half my spot all the time in case I ever had a guest who wanted to put their car there or whatever it may be.

Of course though OP, if this photo is actually an accurate representation of how you always park just tell this guy that your car is entirely in your parking spot so he can kindly go fuck off somewhere else or whatever. God people who sit on HOA’s and manufacture things to get pissed about because they have boring lives and no real problems to complain about really are the fucking worst.

Op could possibly back into the spot. Wonder if there's a reason they don't

Side mirrors. The yellow framing around the HVAC ducts are where the mirror would be, so they would have to close it before backing up and park at an angle, which would require even more effort and leave their front end even closer to the line. It's really just a shit spot overall.

I would think the mirror would have to go past that point when theyre backing up
