My Neighbor Drove over My Lawn Every Day as a Shortcut to Her Yard

After my divorce, I needed a fresh start, so I moved into a little white house with a porch swing and a yard I could call my own. My lawn became my therapy—planted with roses from my grandmother’s clippings and tended with care. It was peaceful—until Sabrina arrived. Her SUV started cutting across my lawn, destroying my flowers like it was her personal shortcut.

At first, I asked nicely, then tried rocks, but nothing worked. Sabrina’s smug attitude made it clear she didn’t care. So, I got creative. Chicken wire under the soil turned her joyride into a disaster. She called a lawyer, I called a land surveyor, and discovered she’d been trespassing. I mailed her the proof with a note: “Respect goes both ways.”

When that didn’t stop her, I installed a motion-activated sprinkler that drenched her car. She never crossed my lawn again.
