- Jo Clarke was shocked to return to her car and find an abusive letter left for her
- The Auckland woman said she parked between the white lines while shopping
- The note was typed out onto a white card and placed into driver’s side window
A woman has told of her shock after returning from shopping to find an abusive note typed on a white card and left on her car.
Jo Clarke, from Auckland, had parked between the white lines at Shore City Shopping Centre in Takapuna on Sunday when she found the profanity-filled letter.
Typed in black ink onto a white piece of cardboard, the note had been tucked into her driver’s side window by an angry stranger.

‘Thanks for parking so close. Next time leave a f***ing can opener so I can get out. A**holes like you should take the bus,’ the note said.
Ms Clarke said she thought the card was advertising at first, and found it more amusing than threatening, The New Zealand Herald reported.
‘I was just more surprised someone had typed cards on hand waiting for someone to cross them,’ she said.
‘No one has ever called me an a**hole before so I thought that was quite empowering and funny.’
Ms Clarke said she had parked properly, and thinks maybe the angry stranger was jealous of her new work vehicle.
‘It was a narrow space that I reversed three times to leave space on either side and was within the white lines,’ she said.
The identity of the furious driver who left the note on Ms Clarke’s car remains unknown.
