And he/she drives a BENZ

Help! Neighbour taking advantage by parking too close to my property line.
- Thread starter Magpi3
- Start date
In our last semi I had a lawn problem with the adjoining neighbour. Other than that we got along well.
When his grass got too long I would use my lawn mower to put his initials in his side. I got a phone call and he chuckled "I got your message."
I was thinking of a sign GOAT PASTURE FOR RENT but due to ethnic issues decided it was not PC.
So the OP posted a non motorcycle issue at 12:40 AM and we're now at page 3.
Unless there is a handicap issue for the other car park as recommended but possibly an inch or two at a time so it doesn't look like a retaliation.
Wait a tick. Is this all a giant troll? Does the Benz park this way because they store a motorcycle in the garage and need access to keep it safe while the OP is a bike hater?

Black cars matter ?

If you back in and park like he does, I bet you he will either:
1) not care and continue doing what he's doing. Looks like there is space to still slightly open the door and squeeze into the passenger side even if you park right at the edge of your driveway.
2) He'll escalate in turn and put his right-side tires right on the property line

Black cars look better in the shade.
My last house had adjoining driveways and I refused to take down the fence. It was on my property. There was no way I was coming home to a hockey game with my garage door as the goal net. I am a territorial bastard.
Put plants in pots on the centre line on your side. Choose thorny plants and make the pots very large and heavy.
Assuming your neighbour will do the right thing is all well and good but as the years go by I see less and less of that and it’s really all very selfish right now. You have to use a little social engineering to get them to change their behaviour.
My neighbour has been a dufus about his air conditioner for 15 years....”it doesn’t bother me” was his response when I asked him at the start if he thought it was reasonable to put it right outside my bedroom window when it could be moved quite easily somewhere else where it wouldn’t bother either of us. I even suggested I’d help pay for that. Crickets since then as he doesn’t want to put his unit in his back yard like everyone else in the neighbourhood.
So....my industrial fly trap is placed in my garden all summer such that it definitely doesn’t bother me with the smell.
I tried the reasonable approach for years. **** it now!

What on earth does that have to do with anything ?
Sometimes cultural experience changes how you view and interact with others. While asking ethnicity is the most concise way of asking the question, it may be more accurate to ask where they grew up or where they lived. When people start from a vastly different cultural viewpoint, it can be hard to see why the other person is upset as you see it completely as a non-issue.
EDIT:
Otoh, it was phalanx that asked the question, so maybe my interpretation of it was way off.

Would installing some kind of fence be a violation?

Some people from other countries (like immigrants) just don't give a pooop
At my old apartment (owned by Kasey Wong) he shoved ~4-6 immigrant Indian students upstairs
-- brought bed bugs
-- countless noise complaints
-- jumped up and down to the point where paint was flaking / cracking
-- trashed the apartment
-- used the patio as a garbage dump
-- drunk parties
Mr. Wong tried to ignore all of the complaints because he was making big money off them and us tenants tried to reason with them. NOPE they barely understood English and shrugged us off.
Finally they got kicked out but he brought another group of immigrant students into the apartment... They also were fun
-- burned down their kitchen
-- left their door open when cooking so everywhere including the laundry room smelled
-- countless noise complaints
-- music late at night (likely having sex but why do they need to tell the entire apartment?)
-- drunk parties
This group had a few women and they were a lot nicer to deal with and did change. But the men in there didn't give a sh8t like the previous folks. They are still there but I think it's due to COVID.....
So basically a war started...
He got fined by the city, got fined by the LTB and much more.
He fought back with youtube video(s) to try and ruin my changes of getting another apartment... Told others I was trying to use the LTB to swindle him out of cash because I was a broke bastard.
Got to the point where he absolutely hated by guts and lawyers started to get involved but I decided this wasn't worth fighting. But some good has come out of this like more sensible pricing for parking spots, things in the apartment actually get fixed now, he will provide receipts and he accepts e-transfers now....
Hopefully this neighbor issue doesn't escalate to that

If it's a condo, they will have something about it in the by-law. If freehold, location becomes complicated. I assume that the neighbour would be anti-fence, so installing it on the property line may not be easy. Setting it back the standard ~0.8m obviously doesn't work. That gets you talking to the city to see how they deal with the situation and this won't be the first or last common driveway with issues.
