Whack two trolley jacks under it and move it yourself.
You are legally allowed to move a vehicle as long as you do not damage it at all in the process.

ARGH!!! Just come home to 2 people visiting 11A. 1 parked outside mums across drive, the other outside ours and also across the drive so we had nowhere to park.

Knocked and owner of 11A says, well they are taxed so they can park there!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!! Cheeky ****ing bitch!!!!

I have now contacted my local councilor about getting the street made residential parking only. Probably wont do a bit of good, but I've had to do something or I'd smash their windows in!

So annoyed. Even Davey is wound up and he never gets wound up about these things!

That's ridiculous :/
That'd really piss me off.

If it is a dropped kerb then they can't bloody park there, go round and tell them you are going to ring the police because they are causing an obstruction and the police will get them to move.

Flats just weren't made with parking in mind were they? We have a nightmare of a time in Edinburgh too, thats without visitors (or me being fined). If you think about it per house number there are maybe two spaces tops, but per that number there are 4 or 6, 5 person flats, even if only 10% of people own a car and want to park it outside, you can see theres already a problem

Don't really know what the answer is, but theres sure a problem!

They don't live in a flat, regular street of houses although having seen it, it is quite often full of cars but no excuse at all to park across people's driveways! Visitors should park round the corner if they can't park in the street imo.

LeperousDust · 31-05-2008, 17:13

Oooooh I just assumed with 11A

Haly · 31-05-2008, 17:21

Which makes perfect sense

I don't know why it's 11A either, just know the road

They are not allowed to block access to private property regardless of road tax. They are breaking the law and the police will come and ask them to move.

If you report a dropped curb block 3 times to the police (I'd take photos too and dates/times/report reference numbers), I believe the council then have to paint an entrance way road marking free of charge or you can request and pay for it yourself but I think that then costs lots
