Tires getting slashed

Hi there-

I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing tire slashing in the 80's/Ridge Blvd area. So far I've had 2 done, and when I took the car to a mechanic, his response to me was something along the lines of "Either you're screwing someone's wife, or you're parking in someone's spot". Considering neither one of those things are true, I'm trying to figure out if my car is being targeted, or if this is a neighborhood-wide thing.

Thanks!

    pisces, try logging on to bayridgetalk.com, there are a ton of ppl that post there. not many bayridgers on this site. nobody has posted anything about this there, but if you ask maybe somebody knows about it. good luck!

    They seem to be a bit on the idiotic side there

    i hear you, there's a lot of silliness going on over there (including my own commentary, sometimes) but for the most part they are informative and respectful.

    plus, there's really nobody on this forum, thus uninformative and even more boring.

    there's absolutely NOTHING going on over there. all the members left to go to bayridgetalk.com years ago. i understand if it's not your cup of tea though.

    We've had several instances of tires being slashed here. But in almost every case it was a covert act of street justice: blocking someone's driveway, parking at a fire hydrant or crosswalk, letting your fat-ass SUV hang out over the sidewalk, etc.
