Can I clamp cars that park on my lane?


Recommended Posts

Are there any signs which say it is a private lane and that parking is not allowed? If so, then I think I'd add a sign threatening to clamp any illegal parkers. Then, I'd go for the 'blocking them in'. You can then be unavailable for several hours when they want to get out - although there is always the risk that they might take it out on your wing mirrors if they are that way inclined. Or, if you are prepared to let them out, then at least they have to come and be released, wehich may embarrass them enough to not do it again.

on a serious not, if its private property, call the police and tell them that cars have parked on private property

 

The police only have powers under the road traffic act , these vehicles are not on a highway , they are on private property and they have NO legal powers to do anything to the vehicles or their owners. They would refuse to attend such a call , and quite rightly so.
