This. Years ago I got ticketed for blocking my own driveway.

Do you have Codes enforcement? I would call them and get the Parker ticketed. [/quote]

Sort of ridiculous to ticket someone for blocking their own driveway. [/quote]

and yet they do. I live in the suburbs and you will get ticketed for this. [/quote]

What jurisdiction?
I work with parking officers and we literally do not ticket if it’s their own driveway. They can run the tag and check. [/quote]

Not ticketing doesn't make it legal.

No person shall park a vehicle or permit it to stand, whether attended or unattended, on a highway in front of a private driveway, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant or the entrance to a fire station, within 15 feet of the entrance to a plainly designated emergency medical services agency, or within 20 feet from the intersection of curb lines or, if none, then within 15 feet of the intersection of property lines at any highway intersection.[/quote][/quote]

I don't understand why it should be illegal to block your own driveway, though I guess you don't want to have to make the parking attendants verify that the car blocking any given driveway shouldn't be there.[/quote]

Because you don't own that space in front of your driveway. It doesn't belong to you, you can't choose to use it for parking.[/quote]

But if the driveway wasn't there, it would be available for parking for whoever wanted to use it. So why isn't it available for parking to the owner of the driveway?[/quote]
