Let's see.

IIRC, parked adjacent to double yellows is still illegally parked, even if they're not directly on the road.

If you're in London, parking with wheels on the pavement is specifically illegal by bylaw.

Assuming no dropped kerb, they've had to drive across the pavement to get to your property. I'm sure dibble would be interested in someone doing that.

Parking on your property - trespass?

Of course, the real question is, why haven't you built a fence around your property? Either before they turned up or after, either is good.

In fact they seem to want the hose on, frisbee, cricket set, RC helicopter, BMX bikes. It actually has pretty strong paint.

Watch a bit of Danny Macaskill and then go practice hopping on and off the roof.

I'd defo block it in with a couple of your own vehicles, the owner will then have to speak with you to remove their vehicle.

As its parked on private land the Police effectively cannot do anything, my brother had a similar incident with a parent parking on his land to collect kids from school so he blocked them in.

Said parent came round and asked if he would move his car, he basically told them where to go and slammed the door in their face.

About 1.5hrs later he gets a knock on the door from some Bobbies ,he explained the situation about it being private land and how parents repeatedly parked there.

They politely asked if he would move his car and they would have a word with the school.

Some people are just ignorant d!cks.

Really?

Excellent. Next time I have to use the airport I'll leave my car on someone's driveway for a fortnight.

If you've got a tin of condensed milk, use it to glue a sheet of newspaper right across the windscreen. Spray across it 'suck it up, jackass'.

I'm sure they're not insured when parked on (your) private property. Burn and report with a very detailed address..... Should cost them!

We had this for the last five years - random cars parking on private spot (front of house, double yellows on road, laid to brick pavers, planted tubs and gert big ''private parking please" sign. Even better, they would regularly pull into the yard/garden of next door that we shared. We one even found 20 plus motorbikes in there, and on the back garden lawn.

Such is life living in a tourist spot.

Can you and a burly mate not bounce the car into the street then report it for causing an obstruction?

The OP appears to be far too relaxed about this. I reckon it's his own car and he's just trying to angry-up the forum 😀

An old chap near me used to sprinkle cars with bread and cereal, birds came down like alfred hitchcocks horror movie, left quite a few dents in cars along with lots of crap.

they soon found somewhere else to park.

They snuck off whilst I was plotting my 400km audax route.
Anyway I am chilled, just because I don't like poor leg tattoos and that I think people who ride bikes with frayed cables should be beheaded, doesn't mean I'm not chilled.

Good idea - I support this law. Did I also mention I sell cable end caps, £50 each?

Oh well, I'll call off the BBQ and the half-time 'entertainment'.

We'll head to the pub instead 😉

Funny how folks now seem so perturbed about parking on private land.Clearly they don't read the regular threads abou getting parking tickets ...

I somewhat shamefully poured a pint of maggots in a car heater intake once. 😳

Jamie wins. again.

we used to live in a house that had a gated drive, with a big sign saying 'do not obstruct the gates'. my dad always parked in the drive, and needed to get out 7am sharp for work. we lived opposite a hotel, and people always parked in front of the gates. My dad used to araldite (the two tubes you had to mix) an A4 piece of paper over the drivers section of the windscreen, saying "move your ****ing car"...

Good point.

The OP should've given him a [s]fine[/s] charge notice for £120, going down to £80 if the driver pays within seven days.

Preventing people from easily driving away would seem counterproductive.

Is the car still parked in your front lawn? It's dark now outside, and i will be in bed soon. Need to know before then. Cheers.

Brilliant..
Bit of a difference between an overstay in a designated parking area and dumping your car on someone's lawn.
