There's always one who thinks their wants overrides everyone else

[FairfaxAikman]

Sick of drivers bumping their cars up onto our garden, over new year I installed big fuck off rocks and painted them white.
Apparently this is not a big enough clue that it's private property and CorsaCunt has chucked them about to do what suits HIM, leaving a sodding great hole in the grass where the rock used to sit.
Sadly I had to leave for work otherwise I would have been staking the car out to confront the tosser.
Absolutely livid!

Just put the rock back in position - if the back window happens to be in the way - tough.

I'd be tempted to put up a fence anyway if you can agree it with the joint owners. (Unless the joint owners are the Council) Even if it's excluded in the deeds, what are they (presume the Council) going to do about it? Do you ever see them springing into action for anything else? Doubt it. There are many incidences when people build whole houses or whacking great extensions without permission and it takes years to get any action, if then. Doubt anyone's going to freak out over a fence.

CorsaCunt

brilliant!

Cover the rock in anti-vandal paint - it never dries. Think you may have to put up a warning sign that you have done so, mind, but it would be worth it.

What about painting the rocks with that anti vandal paint so when they try to move them they get covered with it or get it on their car if they hit them?

next time cover the rocks in dog shit ?

I feel for you OP

"Why have they parked like that ,though? What is the point of putting the rear wheels on the grass?"

^ That... why do it??

The anti-vandal paint an spikes would be dangerous if someone parked legally but their toddler went into the grass.

If you get out of a car, you tell your children to wait somewhere safe, to get a buggy out etc.

The OP needs to start with a sign.

Loving the anti-vandal paint idea!

Annoying for you. A little fence should do the trick?

""next time cover the rocks in dog shit ?""

You can't cause alarm/distress/ or harm to others, even if it's just on your land.

What you need is a ha-ha. Ive always thought they were due a revival.

That is utterly ridiculous! Although I'd love to see a Google maps image so we can see the layout just in case there is a reason for him wanting to park further back.

I hope you had time to leave a note. Cheeky fecker.

What about something like birds mouth fencing? It is quite solid and good for preventing parking twats.

What distress? Dogs shit everywhere. OP was just shovelling them into a convenient place to dispose of later

To those asking why CorsaCunt is parked like that, he's being "considerate".
The public road runs through our private complex and non-residents can park there. There is a turn on the road and if he parked fully in the road it would stop vehicles driving through.

Red is the flat buildings, green the gardens (I e the bits the flat residents jointly own and have to pay gardeners to maintain) grey is the private car parks (jointly owned by the flat residents) red lines are double yellows. blue are considerately parked cars and yellow is CorsaCunt

I would not have parked like the car driver in the photo.But I would have thought that this is not private property. Rocks is what our local council does to stop people parking on grass verges. I would have assumed this was council land.

I've always wanted a ha-ha Scrambled.
Oh to enjoy the pastoral vista at the bottom of my property without the risk of farm animals encroaching on my land.
Unfortunately we live in an ex council terraced house so it might not work quite as I envisage. ..

that shouldn't be a parking spot at all. Since if he parked legally it would block the corner/road.

What is a ha-ha????

the rocks are supposed to indicate it's private property.
The problem you have is that an awful lot of people put white rocks/logs/chunks of white painted concrete along the edge of the verge in front of their houses when the verge is in fact owned by the council. This is clearly not the case for you, but almost always an unfenced strip in front of a garden fence is part of the highway (which, iirc from my time in local government, is divided into the carriageway, the footway and the verge).

It happens a lot near us, and it makes some stretches of road quite dangerous: if a lorry is bearing down on you along the middle of a narrow lane, you have absolutely nowhere to go as a direct consequence of some selfish arse deciding that he (or she) knows better than the highway engineers. A friend of mine almost crashed her car into lumps of white cornet on a verge when another vehicle pulled out in front her without looking: the obvious thing would have been to have pulled onto the verge, but the verge - plainly part of the effing highway, given the layout of the lane - was blocked.

Possibly Corsa driver has encountered this kind of twattery and honestly has no idea that the verge is yours (though parking their back wheels on it seems pretty pointless and unpleasant). Posts with a chain and a handing sign saying 'private land' might work.

OMG someone needs to flag up that diagram it's a thing of beauty

I have no practical advice for you but your diagram is awesome

Well done on the diagram, especially like the use of colour
