To think neighbours should sort their drive out?

[parkingpillocks]

We live in a cul de sac where everyone has a driveway for one or two cars. There's an area for visitors to park (not marked but just a stretch of road that isn't blocking a driveway) that can take four cars.
Anyway, the neighbours at the end house have a bit of land that goes from the front and around the side of their house, that could take 3 cars. However, because they have a bit of lawn and a poxy shrub in the middle of it, they can't get the cars onto this bit of land so they use up three of the parking spaces in the street, meaning if anyone gets visitors they have to park elsewhere.
Aibu to think they should get rid of their bloody shrub and sort their drive out now they have four cars in the household?

Sigh, can't believe my post has been deleted,

FWIW I don't actually like them much, they are bloody odd and their dog is an annoying little fucker.

Oh, how random, maybe it was a terminology issue. I thought people could be as abusive as they liked, but perhaps not.

Having 4 cars is vvvv unreasonable.

So it's their lawn extending round the side of their home. They presumably like it that way. Is it really a huge thing that they use spare spaces that aren't allocated to anyone. I couldn't get wound up over that tbh.

Just park one of your cars on the road when expecting visitors and the visitor can park in your driveway. Other neighbours will follow and if they can't park often enough, might prompt them to sort the driveway.

Oh I feel your pain.

We live in a cul de sac where everyone has a garage and a drive that could accommodate at least two cars. People who live a few doors down own a motor home, however their drive is big enough to take the motor home and both of their cars. Yet when they go away in the motor home they move the cars to get the motor home out (fine) but then go away leaving the cars on the road for however long even though their drive is then empty. I mean, it would probably take less than five minutes to put their cars back on the drive!

OK it's no real buggy and I know I don't own the road etc. etc., but where they park makes it that bit harder to get in and out of our drive as you can't take a proper swing at it. Also if we have visitors they have to park further away because if they parked outside our house it would block the road with their cars being there.

At the moment with Bank Holidays it is happening a lot.

Oh god, my friends have a dog also, 😱

I would find it annoying too OP, but at the same time I know how much it costs to get your drive done properly (we were quoted £20,000 several years ago ).

Could you accidentally reverse onto the poxy shrub one day and take it out of the equation? You might be doing them a favour.

V annoying but with a bit of luck adult DCs will move on sooner rather than later.

Leave the poxy shrub alone! Eyeing it up for destruction when it's just sitting there going about its shrubby business, providing birds perches and chillin' with the lawn and the earthworms. Bore off with your tarmac!

Puppymonkey how big is your drive?! We had ours done three years ago and it was 5k. It's big enough for four cars.

It’s pretty big OP, but definitely not £20,000 big.
