Ok,I live at the end house of a cul de sac.
I have a big drive.
I obviously have to drive over my neighbours drive to access my property.
For context my drive/ front garden can happily house 5 cars which it does as I have a car, my DH has a van and my boys both have a car.
Which we park on our drive,
Saturday I weeded my front garden.
Reversed my car to overhang the neighbours property by 2 foot
Her car is on her drive 15 foot away so in no way does it impact her access.
She called the police...
They actually came round!
Wtaf?
Yeah they were suitably embarrassed as I sent them away as they obviously knew she is crackers 😂
Hope the photo works 🫰

How did this impact her?

I’m amazed that the police came for that honestly, but you are in the wrong if you have left your vehicle on her property at all. If you need to move your car off your own property to do gardening then you should be finding somewhere else to park it- that’s not someone else’s property.

Let’s hope your neighbours don’t return the favour reversing their car just enough to stop you getting on and off your property.

dangerous ground you’re treading

There's no photo so I don't know why you 'obviously' have to drive over your neighbour's drive. Because that's not normal.

You weeded your front garden? Why is this relevant to you parking on her drive?

Your car was on her property! I’m genuinely impressed the police came out, but you’re in the wrong, what exactly are you expecting here?

Really?
