Your post makes no sense! - Without a dropped kerb, there is no "lawful (vehicle) access to a property"

A simple Google search on the subject will explain it all to you!

Try this for a start (From: http://www.enfield.gov.uk/info/1000000625/pavement... )

Vehicle Crossover/Dropped Kerb

"It is an offence to drive over the pavement to park on a private property without a legally constructed vehicle crossover."

(And "Legally constructed" means planned and constructed by the local council only!)

Honestly, it's not that hard to find this st out for yourself!

As for the OP: Write as many nice notes as you like! - You're the one breaking the Law, not those parking in front of your car!

You don't like it? - That's just tough st basically!

It's not hard to find stuff on the internet
doesn't make it actually true
the councils like the idea that it's an offense, but they have nothing to back it up, it's a complex issue.
"It is an offence to drive over the pavement to park on a private property without a legally constructed vehicle crossover." This might be technically correct, the best form of correct, but ignores the fact that it could be equally an offence to do it with a legally constructed vehicle crossover, under a nearly 200 year old law, Section 72 of the Highway act 1835

this law makes it a blanket offense to drive anything on the pavement, no statutory exceptions and it's still technically in force

Road traffic act 1988 section 34 is a much more up to date law and has a clear exemption for accessing property, without a mention of cross overs or drop kerbs, what it states is,

It is not an offence under this section to drive a mechanically propelled vehicle on any land within fifteen yards of a road, being a road on which a motor vehicle may lawfully be driven, for the purpose only of parking the vehicle on that land.
