An auto-repair shop owner in Taichung went viral after sticking a nail in the tire of a car parked outside his shop and posting it online, warning people not to park in inappropriate places. It turns out it was his own car wheel that he punctured, all to prove his point.

An auto-repair shop owner punctured his own tire with a nail. People were shocked and posted about it online, generating a lot of buzz.

Voice of auto-repair shop owner
Punctured own tire
It’s my own car, my personal car. I did it mainly to vent, because this is a business, but residents or strangers often park their cars at the entrance, one, two, or even three times. Honestly, it causes a lot of problems for my shop.

The owner said that people often park outside his shop in Taichung’s Nantun District, blocking staff from coming and going. He stuck a nail in his car tire to tell people that parking where you shouldn’t causes a lot of problems. But he never expected that so many people would discuss his post online.

Punctured own tire
If it’s a screenshot that someone then reposts, and they go on to make up a story based on the image, creating their own narrative and reasons for it, trying to stir things up, that’s beyond my control. If it’s done with malicious intent, I will seek legal advice from my lawyer.

This kind of cavalier parking is not only a problem for the shop, but for local residents as well.

Commenting on parking
Sometimes two cars will park, one behind the other or side by side.

Commenting on parking
I said, excuse me, but if you’re going to park here again, can you please leave your phone number? He shouted, “Is the road yours?” I don’t mind letting people park, but I want to be able to contact them.

The shop owner hoped that puncturing his tire would warn people not to just park wherever they please. His post unexpectedly caused quite the controversy.
