Another parking one

We live in a row of terraced house all with front gardens turned into drive ways. Only problem is all the cars stick out on to the pavement so badly it’s really annoying. I keep having to walk so close to the edge of the pavement is there anything that I can do

If they've had permission to turn their gardens into driveways then surely the council should have assessed that there was enough space to accommodate the vehicle?
If they areblocking the path then phone the council.

Have they dropped their kerbs, or just undertaken some gardening...

There’s minimum measurements of drives before the council will lower the pavement to access them, at least where we are.
Are they all legit drives or just bad parkers?

Do they have dropped kerbs in order to drive into their gardens? If not then maybe contact the council for obstructing the pavement. If they have dropped kerbs then they will have been given permission to cross the pavement but still shouldn’t be parked on it. Depends if you want to stay on friendly terms with your neighbours or not I suppose.
