It’s happened to all of us. You come home from a long day of work, pull into your driveway, and discover that someone has parked in your space. Or maybe you wake up on a Saturday morning, ready to enjoy a leisurely cup of coffee, only to find that there’s a car blocking you in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whatever the case may be, finding a stranger’s car in your driveway is never a pleasant experience. So, what can you do about it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Report People Parking in Your Driveway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nobody likes finding someone parked in their driveway without permission. Not only does it block you in, but it also feels like an invasion of your personal space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Has someone been parking in your driveway without your permission? If so, you may be wondering how to report them. Read on for a step-by-step guide on what you can do to get this situation resolved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do Some Investigative Work<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The first thing you should do is assess the situation. Is the car parked partially in your driveway and partially on the street? If so, you may want to call the police or your city’s non-emergency line and ask for assistance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, if the car is completely blocking<\/a> your driveway, you can take matters into your own hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Start by trying to track down the owner of the vehicle. If there’s no one around, check for any identifying information inside the car, such as registration paperwork or an insurance card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you’ve located the owner, you can try calling them or knocking on their door to ask them to move their car. Oftentimes, people will be happy to oblige once they realize they’re causing an inconvenience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gather Information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Gather information about the vehicle. When making a report, you will need to include the vehicle’s color, make, model, and license plate number. This information will help authorities identify the car and take appropriate action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take pictures of the vehicle and any parking infractions. Be sure to get a clear shot of the license plate as well. These pictures will serve as evidence in your case. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Identify the exact location where the vehicle is parked. This will help authorities find it more easily. You should also note the date and time that you are making the report. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take the Time to Review Local Parking Regulations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This step <\/a>is important in order to determine whether or not the person who has been parking in your driveway is actually breaking any laws. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Call a Tow Truck<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you’re unable to track down the owner of the vehicle or they refuse to move it, your next step should be to call a tow truck. In most cases, you’ll need to give the tow truck driver proof that the car is blocking your driveway before they’ll agree to move it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once they’ve towed the car away, be sure to file a police report so that the person responsible is held accountable for their actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Call the Police<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You can file a report over the phone or in person at your local precinct. The police may ticket the vehicle and\/or have it towed away at the owner’s expense. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
