To want him to move his car off my drive?

[Cactusjelly00]

Co worker got pulled over for not having valid vehicle registration (not in the uk laws differ here)
He asked if he could park his car on my drive for one night (2 nights ago, it's now 7pm on the 3rd day) I said ok, he doesn't have a home at the moment (staying in an apartment with friends while he searches) as he's new to the area - nowhere else to park it and I was trying to be nice. Stupid me. If his car isn't kept on private property until its re registered the police can impound it.
Anyway, he's now saying he can't afford to get the registration done until payday which is next week. But I need his car off my drive, I have an important delivery tomorrow (a very large one) my driveway is very long and extremely steep as I'm in a flood prone area, a delivery lorry cannot park in the street and will need to reverse onto my drive and take my things in via the back entrance.
They're coming between 2-3pm tomorrow. I've told him he MUST have his car gone by midday tomorrow but he's refusing.
I do have the authority to have his car removed by the police but then this will be charged to him and his car may be impounded until he registers it or finds somewhere else for it.
Seems a bit heartless to me but then I did only agree to one night!
Aibu,
Wwyd?

He's the one being a dick. You offered him one night, he's taking the piss. He will, of course, cast you as a total bitch for doing this, but that's not because you are a bitch (you aren't), but because he's a dick.

Just tell him that either he moves it by your deadline or you will have car removed by the police as you describe. His call.

This.

I would phone him now. He isnt going to reply to message he thinks if he says he never got it you will be the bad guy or leave it.
He needs to know you nean business and it has ti be gone by 9 or 10 latest tomorrow as thats when you are phoning police.
He isnt interested in your inconvenience re delivery. Someone who drives without tax or insurance doesnt care for anyone elses problems that he could cause.

Yes ring him, off a different number.

[MillennialFalcon]

YANBU. He is taking advantage, he clearly knew when he left the car at yours that it wasn't just going to be overnight, since he had nowhere else to put it. He was always planning on stretching one night to several. He doesn't care about your circumstances so why should you care about his? Since you have given him fair warning that you need the car gone by a deadline or you will have it towed, I think it's reasonable to follow through.

Good idea to ring him from a different number. He may not pick up if he thinks it's you.

Would you feel ok if he was there after your delivery? You shouldn’t have to but maybe a compromise would help you. Tell him to move it out to the street for your delivery coming then it can be moved back afterwards? Only if he’s still playing nicely and you want to of course

[Hortonlovesahoo]

I’d also call tonight and just reaffirm your message. You’ve been more than kind to him and given him plenty of warning

[mothertruck3r]

It would be very costly for him if he didn't and even though he's acting like a cock I don't want him to lose lots of money so hopefully he sees sense about it.

He's happy to inconvenience you and potential cause you to lose money though. Just warn him and then call the police if he still refuses, you've been nice and accommodating enough!
