Q: If a car pulls across your driveway and blocks your car in and you need to leave is there any way to move the car without breaking the law?
A: If a car is blocking your driveway and you need to leave, there are legal steps you can take, but physically moving the car yourself without the owner's consent would likely break the law. Here's what you can do:
Attempt to locate the owner: If the car belongs to a neighbour or someone nearby, try to contact them and ask them to move it.
Call local authorities: If the owner cannot be found, contact the non-emergency number for your local police or parking enforcement. They can issue a citation or potentially arrange for the car to be towed if it is illegally blocking your driveway.
Document the situation: Take photos or videos showing that the car is blocking your driveway. This can help if there are any disputes later on.
Do not move the car yourself: Even if you're tempted, don't try to physically move the car (e.g., pushing it or attempting to drive it) unless you have permission from the owner. Doing so could result in damage or liability issues.
Following the proper legal channels is the safest way to handle the situation.
