AIBU to push this car off my drive..?

Never posted here before but me and DH are having a discussion about what to do.

We have a driveway next to our house, our car is parked on our driveway. Our neighbours always have lots of cars around their house (2 on drive way, one in front on their house, one in front of our house). Today someone has parked their car in front of my drive, totally blocking in my car.

Have knocked on both neighbours - one didn't know whose it was. The other (the one with all the cars) wasn't in.

DH went out to put a note on the car and found the door was ajar. He's now talking about putting it in gear and pushing it down the road. I have a feeling this might be slightly illegal!

We go in holiday tomorrow at 930am and therefore need the car.

Thoughts?!!!

Next time don't ask. Just move it. I've done similar.

I worked at an event once where a car (mini) blocked the venue's only driveway. The crews needed to get their vans out so four of them lifted the car and shifted it. Not just out of the way but 50 yards down the road Grin.
I've always wondered about the owner's reaction when he/she came back for it.

Nowhere to park? Nowhere to fucking park? How about in front of the neighbours drive? Tits.

How about blocking their driveway?! Just a thought! When I was a student we had police knocking on the door because my housemate had blocked the only gate into a staff car park. In his defence the fence and gate were same colour and style and there were no lights so be wouldn't have known when he'd parked there at night. The staff called police with reg number, they presumably sent local police or called his home address first which was 150 miles away where his parents would've told them he was in Midlands as a student!
