Neighbours walking past our front door to leave the house

our new neighbours keep walking past our front door and squeezing past our cars when they go out. We have checked our deeds and title and this is part of our property, not a public footpath. We would never dream of walking past their house when we go out so we can't understand why they think it's acceptable to do it. They recently had furniture delivered and this was also carried down the path past our front door instead of going in between their cars.
I have attached a image which is similar to the layout of our house and the blue line is where they keep walking. Any advice on how to deal with this please? We haven't properly met them yet so we don't want to come across confrontational but we also want to make it clear that we don't want people regularly walking on our property and setting our ring doorbell off.

What did your old neighbours do?
What did the old neighbours do?
What is their path like?
I mean on the image you have used, with the shrubs on the right, it doesn't look like the right side would be wide enough to be a proper path. Is their other path actually wide enough to be a proper path? if not, have the new or old neighbours done something that makes it not wide enough? Does it look like it shouldn't be a path?
