[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My neighbors have a two car garage, a giant frying pan shaped driveway that easily can accommodate 3-4 cars minimum and 5 cars for 2 drivers (they’re empty nesters so no kids) and they refuse to park any in their garage or driveway. INSTEAD they park their cars, strategically spaced just a little too far apart (so no one can try to park in between any of them) on the street directly in front of my driveway.

These people live across the street from me, so whenever you leave my driveway (backing out or driving straight) you almost hit their car.   Every time. The people that sold us the house told us they’d hit their cars twice.

We have asked them to please not park directly in front of the driveway so we can get in and out. And we cannot park on the street on our side of the street because there is only parking allowed on one side (the neighbor’s side) because the street is so narrow. So we must use our driveway.

We now have a teen driver, and after 15 years of living here we have asked them, politely again, and they said no. They’ve become famous on the street for being difficult for absolutely no reason. They just insufferable. [/quote]

I'd buy two or three beaters and park them there when they use their cars. I'd park one of them by my driveway such that they couldn't park behind it or in front of it without blocking my driveway. That way you've bought your own space because only you can block your driveway.[/quote]

So that won't really work because it would risk block his driveway (our driveways don't end in front of each other). On the rare occasion in the 15 years we have lived here that he doesn't have a car parked in there, either one of us or another neighbor will race to park in a way that would prevent him from parking in front of our driveway, but eventually we have to move the car because we have to go somewhere. My other neighbor timed it once and it took him 3 minutes to race out to move his car back. He is nuts.

It literally means way more to him than to us. It is just so annoying, rude and petty but we have been living here for 15 years now so we just do our best. He's yelled at other neighbors for other random things, he's just a miserable person. At the end of the day I dont really worry about it.[/quote]
