Guy blocked in driveway due to neighbours
Discussion
Its a mess like this at my house, although its rare I get blocked in.
New build with 5 single spaces in front of it. Allocated as 1 each and 1 of them is mine. The other 4 houses don't have a road and are accessed by a path.
2 of them have 2 cars and 1 has 3 cars. Who the f
k buys a house with one allocated space, no road and has 3 cars. Only 2 people live there ffs. Come the weekend cars are packed in like sardines.
Luckily I've sold up and currently renting back from the investor who bought it.

Gary is obviously seen as a soft touch by the other neighbours. He needs to visit each neighbour and calmly explain that blocking access on or off his drive is not on. Please stop doing it.
After that, as suggested by others, buy a snotter and inflict some payback hoping that will make it sink in.

What he should do is what they've suggested - accept the mediation offer, then they're on notice to keep the entrance clear. He's refusing their offers of help, so he's lost the moral high ground. There's no point whining on if he won't talk to them in the first place.
This is PistonHeads and you're writing commonsense ...?!We're having problems with vans & cars blocking the entrance to the cul de sac
One house on the road opposite parks their many cars and vans up the entrance road on the path making it very narrow , they've been asked not to do it but ignore any requests
Somebody rang the police and they came round and put warning notices on the offending vehicles which just pissed them off so now they park on the path leaving enough room to get a wheelchair past which apparently is legal so all the moaning has done is make the access narrower
The thing that's pissing everybody off is they have at least 6 cars and a van but the road they live on has plenty of parking 20m from their house .
Years ago I did know someone that moved on to a new estate and a neighbour complained to the builders that he was parking a van on his drive , the builders threatened him with court action enforcing a covenant about commercial vehicles
He had to park the brand new van on the road off the estate which left him with some space on his drive so he bought an old mini for a few quid ( this was years ago) parked it right on the end in full view of his neighbour and brush painted every panel a different colour
