A man has been left outraged after his entitled neighbours started driving through his garden to save precious seconds getting to the other side of the road. He explained how his neighbours have been tearing up his front garden - about an acre of land - with their golf carts because they don't want to walk around it to get to the road on the other side.
Venting to Reddit, he said: "I live in a pretty large neighbourhood and my house sits on a very large lot with the house to the back. For the past few months, I would get home and I could visibly see tracks throughout the front yard. It wasn’t until the last month or two I have seen that some people have been riding their golf carts through my front yard as a shortcut to the other side."
But that's not all as he has also spotted one of his elderly neighbours taking his grandchildren for a joy ride through his garden. The man added: "[He drove through] the middle of the yard, about 30 yards where they drive through, up the embankment back onto the road. Sometimes it will just be kids driving it. I don’t want to be a Karen, I also don’t appreciate that they are driving through my yard."

Annoyed, the man has taken to social media to ask users how they would handle this situation once and for all. In response, one user said: "The cheapest solution since it’s golf carts is to just dig some holes ready to plant some trees you will be buying next week. Since America likes to sue you should put a sign up I guess. Not illegal to dig holes in your own land."

Another user added: "Plant bushes to border your property, boulders (although expensive) would work, someone here suggested nails, definitely post a sign saying trespassing will be prosecuted and fined. Or a fence." A third user said: "Sounds like you have a long area to protect, almost all solutions will get expensive. Is there a pinch point where if that area is inaccessible to them then it is no longer a short cut? Maybe where they have to go up the embankment." One more user added: "I’d be meaner than most people on here and plant nails pointed up all through the yard. A couple popped tires and problem solved."
