NDN using our allocated parking space, not their own!

[NDNUsingOurAllocatedParking]

Our neighbours have started using our allocated parking space instead of their own allocated parking space.

We've spoken to them but they have continued. The view of their space is not a clear line of vision.

What to do next???

MIL have a scarf on? 😁

So it's because they can't see their car from their house?

I'm not sure what you mean about clear line of sight?

When they are parked in your space what do you do? Go and bag on their door and ask them to move. Park right up to their bumper so they can't get out and refuse to move? I would do all of those things every time and then get some very sticky don't park here stickers and put them all over their windscreen every time until the stop. Failing that get a bollard installed. Or a wheel clamp.

OP do you have a car yourselves?

Did you resolve it?

If they are persisting, write them a letter saying they must stop or face legal action.

Can you leave your car or a different car there for a coupe of weeks? Maybe they need to be trained out if parking there.

Genius 👏👏👏

Here’s the magnificent quiche thread.

And here fanfare drumroll is that epic lemon drizzle thread. Forget your parking problems for a while. Enjoy.

If you warn them you’re going to put in a bollard then they’ll leave their vehicle almost permanently or at least until it’s too dark to put one in. I wouldn’t tell them.

wait what, where did my links go?.

Another try for lemon drizzle…
Hm, you might have to c&p yourselves, sorry:

Just buy a bollard. They lock so they won't be able to move it. Lots of people are telling you this.

Use theirs? That’s the simplest thing.

Who allocates parking spaces? In what respect, legally, is your spaces yours, and theirs theirs? If you have legal rights to your space then a solicitor should be involved. Otherwise a lockable bollard (assuming that you are allowed to erect it) in the middle of your space. Getting in and out of your car to get onto/your space is then the silly requirement

Are you referring to the Isle of Wight penguin bollard thread? I've been here too long! I think they've only just stopped following me round on social media 😂😂

I love your username.

Block them in until they learn to use their own space or call a company to clamp the wheels or take their car away.

Yeah, this is a real non-issue. I don't know what a penguin bollard (oh, yes I do, just googled it, you don't need one!).

Just get a lockable post installed - problem solved.

My neighbours put a planter on theirs because they didn’t drive and random neighbourhood cars kept using it.

Get it towed. Place a warning they ignore it
good bye car.

Since you clearly name changed for this thread, and probably won't discuss anything else under it, why does it matter if you do a diagram?

Anyway, do something or stop moaning. I assume you're an adult.

Block. Them. In. And then categorically refuse to move until the following morning, say you've drunk a whole bottle of wine, anything. When they can't get out when they need to they'll soon stop it

First world problem🙄

Exactly this. A visitor cannot use your property through a loophole. Unless of course you're saying the parking spot isn't strictly speaking yours that you own. If it's yours, it's yours and nobody else's. If it's anyone's well......you must have plans when you bought the place?

What's the visitor loophole?

Just do a diagram. No one will be able to identify your house by that.
