Sorry guys not sure if this is in the right place

There is a guy onmy road who fixes car's outside his house and his drive and over time there has been huge amounts of engine oil spilt on his drive and on the road, its so bad that people can't even walk on the pavement as its filled with oil and now its on the road too now.

Is this allowed? If not who can I speak too

How about environmental health on your local council website..

Hi, this should be reported to the local environmental health team as engine oil must be disposed of properly to prevent, amongst other things, contamination of soil and water supply.

He also needs permission to fix cars at his house.

Is he doing it as a hobby or for cash-in-hand.

I mean fixing your family's cars is fair enough, but you should use appropriate containers to catch the oil and buy the detergent to clean up any spills.
