Parking situation on my new road.

[JennaTools]

I have just completed on a new house. When I viewed it I spent time on different days popping by the road at different times of day to checkout the parking situation and all was fine. My house and the one opposite have a drive for 1 car odd road and the others have space for 2. I only have one car.

The house opposite was for sale at the same time and the new occupants have just moved in a couple of weeks after me.
They have 6 cars!!!! (Green)

I have tried my best on the diagram to illustrate where everyone tends to park - each house has a coloured for above and then their cars are the same colour lines.
I only have one car so my driveway is ample however with green house wankers parking their cars all over the place - mainly at the end of the cul de sac - it's really hard to get out of my drive with cars also parked on the road in between my house (red) and my nice NDN (blue)

I've popped round and introduced myself and explained asking them politely not to park the three cars at the the end of the cul de sac (which is a dropped kerb. But they closed the door in my face and I haven't seen them since. Tonight they've got all of their cars all over the road as per the diagram.

What's my best course of action here?

If anyone's tyres were to be slashed it would be nice NDN who is still parked at the end. He would be pretty stupid to phone the police and then do that

FYI I am not a bad woman driver. I passed my test with no minors

Call the police on him for his sweaty rant. Say you felt intimidated. Do you live alone?

Sweaty rant he was very sweaty I don't live alone I have toddlers and my DH is currently away long term with work. On his return we will have an additional car and then the games will begin!

Haha quality outcome

DD knocked on his door and gave him a mouthful saying because of his cuntiness her van would be there even longer as she had to wait for maintenance to come and fix the tyres, and thanks to him she gets 2 hours extra at home drinking teaHer company informed the police. Neighbour didn't deny it.
There really are some entitled arseholes about.

Haha yeah his estate agent told him he could park there...of course he did, he wanted to sell the house!

He sounds like an awful man, tell him to check the deeds to his property and if these prove to you that he effectively “owns” the entire road you will of course move.

And you defo can’t be in my street as the only shouting today has been chavvy neighbour 2 doors up calling her 4 years old a “f**king stupid idiot”

Oh @Everstrong that's horrible!

@OrchidFancy your dd sound brilliant

Where has he parked while he waits for the police 👮‍♀️?

Whilst it is unlikely regarding the estate agent, don't rule it out! I caught a local estate agent telling the people who were looking at the house around the corner from us that yes the space outside our house was for them to use.

Before anyone jumps on me I live on a private unadopted road and our deeds show we all own out to the middle of the road in front of our house. Leaving the far side for vehicles to drive down. So technically I do own the space outside my house! I had been walking home and have to walk past the house that was up for sale which isn't on the private road and is a free for all with parking. They were concerned about where their 2 cars would go and asked about round the corner (we are the first house). The estate agent eager to make a sale told them that yes they could consider it theirs! I am a self-confessed busybody so stopped and put him straight. He tried to talk over me and said that I was wrong and my landlord had told them it was ok. I don't have a landlord.... their faces were a picture and needless to say they walked off and left him there outside the house!

One of the cars is blocking his drive and also blocking nice NDN from getting out from the end, no idea about the others they're not on this road.

I bloody love parking threads

jenna DD has no fear! This big burly neighbour just stood with his mouth open while DD let rip!
I'll send her round shall I?

Ace user name as well as fab diagrams. Top marks, OP!

They are such knobbers!

We fit 3 cars on our drive, one at the bottom of the drive and the vans go anywhere in the street
Fine if they are small car sized vans, but if they are larger, it would be more considerate to park the vans on your drive.

What a prick! I love your neighbor tho! Definitely place marking

I didn’t know cf estate agent owned the road! They’re really stupid to really think they could just park there and not piss anyone off. Your ndn sound ace.

Can NNDN get out at all or are they completely blocked in?
Next move would be to park in the same direction they do - taking up 2 spaces if possible.

I would HATE to have someone else's van parked outside my front window constantly.

Sorry, didn't mean to tag you 'Breakfast'

If they report it could ndn get in trouble for blocking a dropped curb?

Also, awesome diagram!

Autocorrect fail 😂

What I meant was that the police will take his intimidation more seriously (rightly or wrongly).

If this is going to be an ongoing issue then i’d start logging bad behaviour now.

I'm glad his understanding of public roads seems be to solely based on the word of an estate agent!

Go OP and NNDN.

breakfast The 2 vans are small car sized vans. There are 5(!) transit size vans in our road, one is a school mini bus which has been outside our house the whole weekend😏 and will soon be parked up somewhere, unused for the summer hols.
