Do you have any problems with your Neighbours?

I have a neighbour that lives about 5 doors down from me and he is very abusive. I have never done anything to him and have never even spoken to him. When he drives past, he gives me the finger and yells abuse at me. I get on really well with every other person in the street. What do you think I should do?

I would maybe consider calling the police, you don't know how dangerous this guy might be. If you don't know him and he is doing this, then that makes me worry. Do you do anything back when he does this? Talk to some of your other neighbours about your concern, see if they have had trouble with this guy. Maybe if you have to go to the police they may be able to be witnesses if they have seen this happen. Good luck!

I was considering reporting him to the police. I dont do anything back. His car has a distinctive sound so if I can hear it and I am outside, I just go inside or dont look at him. I am good friends with his closest neighbour and they dont talk to him. He used to have a wife and a child, but I havent seen them for a long time now. Thanks for responding:)

Make sure you let someone know about this. Just incase something ever happens. At least you know what his car sounds like and you can go inside. You shouldn't have to do that at your own home though. Are his neighbours concerned about the wife and child?

For the past month I have kept a diary of the times that he goes past and is abusive to me. I will take this with me when i go to the police.

If this was happening to me I would probably jump in my car and chase him down. I wouldn't suggest this though because it will probably make things worse. I hope he has stopped now, I don't know why people bother doing stuff like that anyway, does it make them feel tough?
