I would be phoning the police stating there is some sort of nutter dressed in just their dressing gown screaming abuse and making threatening gestures to passing motorists.

So you leave the car there all day? Have to say that I live in a street plagued by idiots like that too. I can't stand it and although I know it means nothing I have been known to leave sarky notes on the car windscreens telling them to clear off.

You have no idea how annoying it is to see people arriving in your road and swanning off elsewhere all day like your road is their personal car park.

Why can't you park where you are at college? Does it have no car park?

You leave notes on cars that are legally parked? Why? You'll be 'fining' them next! NIMBY.

Let us have the address and I will happily find some time to go park there and have some fun with them. :A

Its as much my road as yours and so long as permitted is my personal car park also. Only a idiot would think differently.

" I have been known to leave sarky notes on the car windscreens telling them to clear off." That tells me more about you than them .

The OP should name the road so we can have a MSE parkathon.

Just mention .
I have been have instructed that I must first ask you desist from harassing me before the police can arrest you, your behavoiur is causing me alarm and distress and once you are aware of this if you persist you can be arrested, do you understand what I have just said to you.

Little known point is the police wont get involved unless the person has assaulted you or carried on harassment after you have pointed out that that is what they are doing.

It's harrassment ok, at best. I'd certainly get the police involved.

Pot and kettle come to mind, you will be employing one of those companys you hate next to do it for you

If the car is parked legally there shouldnt be any issues

As a police officer if I had to respond to an incident like this my first question to the O/P would be 'why do you keep parking in the same place if you know it annoys the home owner so much?' I know its the public highway and that you have a right to park there but equally common sense suggests that as you are aware that the family is being wound up by you parking there, then you could alleviate the problem by varying the places you park. Have you thought that there might be a good reason why the family gets wound up by people parking outside their house whatever the legal situation? Hopefully words of advice to both parties would suffice because the only way that I would arrest/report/ticket the homeowner for section 5 would be if he or she had a long history of anti social behaviour or public order offences.
