Yeah Im that guy who routinely calls the cops in my town when cars are parked on the sidewalk. Ive called so many times I rarely see it in my neighborhood anymore.

I have been considering this but don’t have enough patience. The cops in my town don’t care. They might even yell at me for wasting their time.

However they do seem to collect data on calls and eventually respond to what it seems like people want. I think it would take getting to the end of the year and having some data analyst say “look how many calls we got about cars blocking the sidewalk. We need to do something”
