Think about all the extra wear on your driveway.

Cars leaking oil and fluids.

I am not talking about people with single driveways. I am talking about those who do have space in their driveway to get their vehicle out


Use your brain. People with 2 car garages have TWO cars. Neither lane can be blocked genius.

Are you one of those people who get all scorched earth if someone parks in front of their house??!

Like you own a public street?

If so - then find something truly illegal to complain about.

If not - my full apologies to you.

My aunt is a Nanny & she tells me that she doesn’t park in a home’s driveway because she has never been given explicit permission to do so.
Of course she doesn’t ask either.

This. So presumptuous.


Okay, find someone else to unclog your shitty overflowing toilet.

This is a bit weird. I'm not a blue collar worker, but if I were going to do a job at someone's house, I would definitely park in their driveway as long as I wasn't blocking anyone.

Because there's probably a car in the garage, and that car may need to exit

We have an old asphalt driveway and i dont care who parks there. But i bet you Bethesda residents with nice laid brick driveways dont let workers use it.

I never asked the lawn care company not to park in my driveway but they don't, and I appreciate it when I need to leave while they are there.

It’s really interesting to me to see some PPs say that it’s rude to park in the driveway unless invited. I have never heard that before and wonder if it’s a regional practice. I grew up in the south where everyone parks in the driveway when they visit. I have wondered why our friends and others don’t just park in our driveway, and maybe now I have my answer. (And now I fear that they think I’m rude when I park in theirs.)

This gets my vote for worst topic ever on this site. This makes the anorexic turtle discussion look like Plato vs. Aristotle.
