Access Road & Parking & agressive caretaker

Flappersmkip

We had 5yrs of 5 cars parking happily at that location. Everyone happy, plenty of room. Soon as he came to work and live in the property he would block us daily and the other neighbours. One of whom is pregnant and needed to get to hospital. The man has issues, I've spoken to the owner and come to an agreement. The police were informed and if I choose to I can prosecute. He broke the law, upset my kids and put an unborn child at risk. Thanks again for the input folks.

What could you prosecute him for?  What law did the police tell you he had broken?

Causing criminal damage. He threw my car keys across the road breaking the plastic case.

You need to either park your car in the garage or on the street.  You sound very self entitled!

You sure your not the man in the picture? Self-entitled, no! Perhaps a little naive in thinking that I could ask for advice here without having trolls claw themselves to the surface and begin feeding. I feel grubby responding to this now so I'll be removing the bookmark and you guys can feed off each other. Thanks again for the help given and bye for now

you asked for advice, and were told that you should not be parking there. That is the legal position
But you have also reached agreement with the owner in any case?
So what is the problem exactly?
To be fair, it does sound like the guy is a being a bit of an !!!!!!, but I'm sure if you spoke to him, admitted that you didn't realise that you shouldn't be parking there then maybe everyone can be happy?

I suddenly understand why the "angry old man" was so angry and treated the OP the way he did. 

The OP parked where she shouldn't and then probably spoke to/treated the man with contempt.

The man sounds a bell end TBH. 

The OP has permission from the owner. Don’t know why the old codger is getting so worked up. He certainly shouldn’t be throwing her property about.

What?  Did the police really tell you that "you" could prosecute him for that?  I don't think so.  Or if they did I bet they were smiling when they did it.

So first of all you make a spurious claim that you own that strip of land and then you start parking two cars on it even though you only have a right to pass and repass over it.  And you don't think any of that is a problem?  Well my sympathies are with the old guy.

I doubt you'll have such an understanding landowner if she comes to sell the property.  She certainly won't want your car parked there (whatever agreement you think you may have) if she wants to sell it, and neither will the new owner.

Don't forget to utilise the sarcasm emoji
