biotechpete Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Normally if you give it a good shove downward over one wheel, the recoil on the suspension will make the car bounce enough to set off the alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclone Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 If it is alarmed give it a push or a bang on the windows. Most people know they shouldn't park across a driveway and would only do so on a temporary or emergency basis. It should summon the driver out if they are in the immediate area before calling for assistance. Unfortunately a minority are just ignorant of decent behaviour and manners and just park there because it's convenient. I used to live on a busy street and work at home, I quite often had to nip out to tell someone as they got out, to get right back in as they'd just blocked my drive and the car in it.

Dardandec Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Just bounce it into the middle off the road and its not your problem then. Someone once blocked me in in a car park, a few phone calls and half an hour later that car was broadside on up a nearby grass banking. Some people need to learn the hard way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Smith Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Just bounce it into the middle off the road and its not your problem then. Someone once blocked me in in a car park, a few phone calls and half an hour later that car was broadside on up a nearby grass banking. Some people need to learn the hard way The problem being that you`d need a few blokes to do that, and then it`d be blocking the road...... The most unfortunate thing about most of the courses of action one can take (with an unknown car parked across one`s drive) involve inconveniencing the neighbours one way or another. Even if it`s just calling round all of them at some unearthly hour to try and find out whose car it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isabelle Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Someone keeps parking their car close to my driveway, between mine and the neighbours. I know that it's not illegal, it's just very inconvenient when trying to reverse into / drive out of the driveway. My partner tried parking in the same spot for a few days, but the driver clearly didn't get the message. Whoever it is lives at the other end of the road, not even nearby really. And now it is back and actually encroaching the driveway edge by a couple of inches, it will be extremely tight to get our car out, if not impossible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclone Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Put a note on it asking them to be more considerate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazndave Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I would have sat in my car and continually beeped my alarm until someone came out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
