parking problem opposite drive?

i live on a narrow bendy street. lately 4 cars have been parking opposite my drive and because the street is already so narrow it is impossible to get on and off my drive. this week i bumped into a parked car when i was reversing there was hardly any room to get out. most people on my street park on the pavement a bit as its a struggle to drive down the road as so close to the parked cars. i have rang my local council but they were useless and said they dont look after my street. what do i do?

If your exit is obstructed by any vehicle on a public highway, don't try and scrap passed any parked vehicles, this will land YOU in trouble as you bumped them, just call the police and they will assess the situation and if Your obstructed they have the power to have the vehicle recovered at the owners expense!

Unless your street is termed 'unadopted' or 'private' there will be a local authority oversight. It may be that the county council is the roads authority. Phone them and ask them to visit and view your difficulty. They may well put down some yellow lines if they agree. I live in a close and we got yellow lines put down to solve a problem. Ask for the Highways dept.

if they keep doing it have a word with them and if they carry on phone the police on the inquiry phone number and ask them to move the cars or to have a word with the drivers if ur the rite type of person u could even have a go at them which will soon make them shift just like some 1 who i know did to some 1 who for 4 nights kept sitting at the bottom of their drive they thoght they could park there cause the drive is very very long until the person had a go at them and they havent come back since. good luck. oh and by the way just so u know it could be classed as an offence but then again maybe not might be something to research.

only one of two ways to combat it,the first have a word with them,the second do the same and park on the road,simple as that.
