    Either tow them or go get a few cans of rattle can krylon red paint and paint the driveway edge in red.
    I have parking enforcement on speed dial for the shitheads here.

    I like it. :rofl:
    But I have my doubts that it'll be very effective.

    I think you should check with law enforcement about local parking ordinances.
    And put the towing company into the contacts list on your phone.

    Good luck.

    People that don't have respect for your driveway are not going to give a shit about that stupid sign . Check and see if you are allowed to paint the curb in front of the driveway red or yellow or something then put up a real sign . The guy who said to move was right .

    youtube search "neighbors blocking driveway" for some really creative less than lethal ideas

    best of luck with your issue, neighbors can really suck don't let them get the best of you

    I am dealing with a neighbor actually possibly neighbors with dog curbing issues, aside from showing dog shit in their face I am at a loss of ideas myself

    I feel your sign does not have the impact to stop the out of towners from making the decision to “risk it”.

    I sense you don’t want a plain “Do not block driveway”.

    Put a kids tricycle at the end of your driveway. It will make 95% move on. The others will hit it and move on. A few might even leave some $.

    Set up video and the publicly post it on YouTube or send it in to the local news channel. Publicly shame for not doing his doody (duty).

    These are the breed of fuck tards that I worry about striking back if I did how them. This is my dilemma.

    Just noticed your location. My buddy rented there for a while and would send us videos of the antics of people there. I thought Houston was pretty liberal with what you can do, but Berkeley is a completely different animal. Are your property values affected by the vagrants at all?

    A guy I worked with his neighbor shot some bottle rockets that landed on his roof . He went over and told them no more . They broke a window out of his car I guess they was mad . He went over and broke every window out of their car . I asked aren't you worried they will do something back . He got up in my face and kinda screamed if I broke all your windows out would come back at me and I said no .

    They’re absolutely mindless, short sighted, hypocritical pests I’ve ever encountered, and the concentration of them here is really dense. These people are so fucking full of themselves.

    My property value is still strong despite the tent city down the street. The city is actually cracking down and clearing them out. Which really doesn’t surprise me because libs think everyone but themselves should be “doing their fair share”.

    I’ve thought about paint but people park across red here by the numbers.

    Put 2 traffic cones in front of your driveway.... you'll need to get out and move them every time to get in or out and they may become part of the tent city eventually.
    Something like this worn a big no parking or you will be towed sign15495814-road-barrier-isolated-on-white-background.jpg

    You need two things. Towing signs, from the closest towing company. And a good relationship with the Officer that works the beat where you live. If they are in hour drive way call the tow truck. If they are parked on the street blocking your drive way, call the cop.

    Yes anyone owning a residence or business can legally call a tow truck to remove a car blocking access to their property

    It's called PPI or private property impound , when I used to be a Autoclub tow truck driver I did many PPI's

    Those habitual line steppers don't learn from passive aggressiveness. You got to hit em where it hurts. Their wallet. Have em towed.
