How do you deter people from using your driveway for turning around? They aren’t using the driveways of the homes next to ours.
DH thinks it’s just positioning and ours appeals to people who want to turn before the end of the road. |

Get over it. Why do you care?
You are not going to be able to stop them. Just let it go. People who get obsessed with people pulling into the driveway spend less than a minute turning around befuddle me. |

| Why is it bothering you? Not a trick question, just maybe answering will point to the best solution. |

Just sit out there with a rifle on your knee.
Honestly, OP. Who cares? |

They make fake ones too if you’re nice. |

| Put cones at the end of your driveway. |

| Op here. It’s destroying the asphalt from the tires turning. The type that was used before we moved in is apparently easily worn away by tired turning in the same spots. More wear and tear is causing more issues than not. |

| I don't understand. We're the second to last house on a cul de sac and I've literally never seen anyone use our driveway to turn around. Because they use the cul de sac. |

Do you live next to someone famous? Or in a great solar eclipse spot? Why are they all coming into your dead end? |

Put a concrete planter (or angry looking dragon) on wheels in the center of the end of your driveway. Move it when you come and go.
Or place two at the sides wide enough for your car to get through, but narrow enough that it becomes the least easy option for others to use. |

+1 that's the whole point of a cul de sac -- it's a circle to turn around in. |

This was my question. Why is your street so narrow they can't turn around in the culture de sac? Does everybody park on the street? Personally I wouldn't want to deal with a cone or barrier. I guess you could get an automatic gate. |
