Correct me if I’m wrong. But aren’t homeowners responsible for keeping their trees from encroaching the street? If the truck “took out a couple branches”....how is that the drivers fault?

I'd say you're correct.

I'd also say that the truck driver seemed like an honest, hard-working guy so I'd bet that HE is more likely to be pro-Trump than the Karen-Gestapo....

It never ceases to amaze me that people will voluntarily purchase property in a covenant restricted subdivision then bitch and moan about following the rules


Yep. And like attorneys, everybody hates HOAs until they need one.

Bigger point is it's plausible race played a role.
it didn’t

It’s possible that perceived social class did but this driver is stopped white or black

i'd probably agree most times.

But, Napoleon and Josephine acted and talked like old racist white men.

while the driver, to his credit remained pretty calm

I really don't see the need to detain the guy. A photo of his license plate, photo of the damage to the tree and a call to his company should suffice.

Pretty much could have ended this thread right there. Stereotype holding true, again.

No, smart people hate them all the time.

Finding a use for a piece of dog zhit doesn't mean you LIKE dog zhit.....

Even if he wrecked a tree, are they legally allowed to detain him just because dude is an HOA President? False imprisonment or false arrest is restricting freedom of movement when it doesn't involve something like shopkeeper's privilege, voluntary consent, or law enforcement making a lawful arrest.


Well if he damaged property he would have to provide his information or wait for police to do a report.

if the limbs were hanging over the street, then the property owner might be responsible for any damage to the delivery guys truck

However, many families are more than happy that their neighborhood looks good, with nice amenities and house appreciation.




The angst caused by innocuous infractions in an HOA neighborhood is literally Karen.
But hey, it's the stepford neighborhood!

Not necessarily true. I had a UPS driver drag down a phone line and break it on my property (before AT&T finally got around to burying it), and he didn't wait around for the police or a report. He did knock on the door, explain what he did, tell us how it would be handled, and then left. We got a call from UPS the next day asking questions.
A week later, AT&T came out to fix and, finally after at least 3 years, bury it. No tv or internet for a week. Yeah, I have plenty of reasons to hate AT&T.
