That's expensive. I'd have added "many thanks" and filled up me little motor with as much as it could take. Seriously though, out of order - a "mistake" my A! article said:

Wouldn't BiB have got it moved or would it be a civil matter?

How can anyone think that is an acceptable place to park ?! You can even see the wheelie bins next to her house

When I have worked in London I have in past been able to book a space on someones drive. I paypal the money and I have space from 8am-6pm, often as little as £5 when carparks nearby are £25+. Have a look on Parkopedia.I don't condone the mistake, houses do have numbers or names on them after all.

head's access to the road. When it was someone parking on a private drive, it was a "civil matter sir". As soon as the poor householder threatened to have it moved, or blocked it in, it was a "potential criminal matter".Too many f
kwits parking where they like, never challenged by anyone with the authority to punish them or move them on. All this does is builds the sense of entitlement in those who behave badly, and they keep on doing it. I imagine if the householder in this case put a 'bed of nails' homemade spike strip on her empty driveway, the miscreant parker would have complained to plod and she would have been up before the bench on criminal damage charges.In my opinion, anyone 'accidentally' damaging a vehicle parked so as to obstruct a footway, cycle lane, or junction should receive immunity from prosecution for said damage. Park like a t
t and you (and your precious mowtahhhh) deserve everything you get... 
It's OK he has his hazards on.
It was abandoned in the "Drop off point" when I went into Tescos and there when I left, despite absolutely loads of spaces in the car park, mind you it's another 10-15 metres further away.
This one bowles in half blocking the walkway and abandons it.
And another space gone, mind you it's a big car.
When I parked a slightly bigger car was parked there and they managed to get in and out OK. Oh well.

How does that work, someone says you can park in front of my house, and they forget who it was, right....

I'm sure I saw an article somewhere about a householder who had some twunt park in their drive to go on holiday. It was near one of the big airports. I seem to remember BiB only got involved when the householder blocked the dhead's access to the road. When it was someone parking on a private drive, it was a "civil matter sir". As soon as the poor householder threatened to have it moved, or blocked it in, it was a "potential criminal matter".

This prize plum in the Crown Point Retail Park in Leeds this morning
Did you ever consider that this wasn't bad parking and actually cleverly thought through to deter others from parking next to me and banging their doors against my new car....I'm guessing not based on my assumption on your low level of intelligence, wondering round taking pictures of cars you'll never own. All the best you sad sad person...regards, prize plum grayme said:
