Shamelessly inspired by Jenna's thread and diagrams but no way as bad of a situation. None the less...
My new home has off street parking for 3 cars. DH and I take two spaces and my DM comes over to look after DD when I work... also friends etc, you get the general idea, we use all three spaces. The amazing driveway was a massive selling point of the house.
We also live near to a Faith school. I mention faith because I fully appreciate that parents wanting their child to attend may need to travel further as it's the only school of its denomination for a very large distance. So these parents will more often than not drive.
We knew that school drop off and pick up times would be busy. We fully anticipated some cheeky parking. It's not a big issue to me if it's 10 minutes twice a day.
Earlier this week a vehicle parked over our drive, blocking two cars in, for almost 3 hours. I was livid.
So here is my question. The dropped curbs are not across the whole drive. But the parking blocked our vehicles from leaving. I was under the impression that blocking a vehicle on a property was not legal. AIBU?
Diagram 1 is the houses. The dropped kerbs are shown in red
Diagram 2 is how parents usually park as school drop off
Diagram 3 is what happened earlier this week.

To think that this isn't legal? (Parking thread!)
