I think you need to get a house near a popular seaside resort without parking restrictions on the road0 -

Hi sickofusernames, have had a similar issue lately so know how you feel. We have a neighbour with a driveway who refuses to use it and parks instead outside of our house when she has no need to! It is annoying but there is not a lot you can do really unfortunately. It just makes it really awkward to get two babies from the car to the house when its just me there and the car is parked about six houses away, all because this person won't use their driveway. :mad:
my neighbour does this because their car leaks oil!:rotfl:0 -
I know where your comming from, the same happens to me, we live in a quiet road and fed up with comming home each sun to find a big transit van and a car parked opposite our house (they park up on sun teatime and it doesn't usually move till midweek) we do have a drive for our car but this means that any visitors we have with cars struggle to get parked near our house, my OH also has problems parking his work van, he doesn't like to park directly infront of someone elses house but can never get parked infront of our own. Apart from anything else it is a lovely quiet road with a lovely view that I don't normally see cause of the van. Not much I can do but it does really annoy me, especially when they can park outside their own home, it's a busy street so think thats why they park in our road.0

What you can do is complain to the council and they will probably do one of the following a) put down double or single yellow lines so they can raise revenue from the tickets b) bring in residents parking which means they can raise revenue from charging you circa £100 a year to park outside your house and make money by issing tickets when non permit holders park outside your house.
Only problem with the above is it will probably upset your neighboors and even though the road outside your house belongs to you they will not share the revenue with you0 -
I don't think the road outside your house belongs to you dacouch!!:hello:0

Not sure of your area but residents parking in my area normally only comes in to areas close to town centre or within 15 minutes walk of town centre, even then you can park your car in several streets as its the residents parking is applicable to zones (several streets)
Even then it was only checked in some streets usually further out of town once a day where its shoudl be twice if its for 3 hours with a discWhat you can do is complain to the council and they will probably do one of the following a) put down double or single yellow lines so they can raise revenue from the tickets b) bring in residents parking which means they can raise revenue from charging you circa £100 a year to park outside your house and make money by issing tickets when non permit holders park outside your house.
