" highway code says dont park across peoples drives. but in law that comment is worth nothing as its not policed enough. you can only report it as blocking your access, when it should come with a fine if found to be doing so. just think yourself lucky they didnt park on your drive as its a civil matter then and you still cant stop them from doing so. unless you chain the drive gates up | |||

If they have parked across your drive on the footpath it is a legitimate Police matter,perhaps not the most pressing thing they have to deal with at that moment but legitimate.Two issues,blocked footpath and "when is the only time you can lawfully drive on a footpath"? To gain access to property."They have to be caught driving off the footpath to catch the fine. The police do turn a blind eye to parking on the kerb when it should come with a fine for doing so as footpaths are meant for people wheelchairs and prams. on roads with only one side to park on then its down to police discreation its even harder for roads that are a single car to pass on. drivers are left to park on each side of the pathway to park outside there house also a police discreation and council discreation thing its mostly down to buyers that buy in the wrong place and expect to park outside there house because they think they have a right to do so. | |||
