I can't get off my drive.
I don't think this is in any way illegal, but..
I live on a narrow road. I have a driveway. Opposite do not have driveways. However, opposite people park normally like on any other road. The problem is is that the road is extremely narrow, and I can only just about get my car off the drive in a normal situation.
However, to the left of my drive you can park a reasonable sized car there without obstructing a driveway. But to the right, you'd find it difficuly to park a tiny car there without obstruction.
There are two cars parks both to the left and right. This leaves me with a small gap to get the car off the drive (plus we have two cars - so no chance / can't maneuver) That would usually be fine on a normal road, but this road is so, so narrow.
Is there anything I can do? Or is this a case of having to accept that I just can't get off my own drive and will have to try and get more of the kerb dropped?
Many Thanks
