Maybe Community Watch could double as the Garage/Driveway Police, and tow your car out of your driveway, to an impound area, where you have to pay a big fine to get your car back.......see where this is going?

That’s exactly right! Just as long as it isn’t sitting on jacks & doesn’t run.

My neighborhood is beginning to look like a parking lot. Neighbor has three cars and a golf car, two are always left in the driveway throughout the night. Other neighbor never puts the vehicle in the garage.
Just wish to clarify this?? Thank you
Be happy they are not on the street. I would never park a car in a house that I sleep in . As long as the cars are not an eye sore what's the difference . Just my opinion .

most areas do not have visitor parking, so where is a visitor supposed to park if not in your driveway. Get real and look for real problems that are out there

I've got a neighbor who keeps his collector cars inside their garage--his & his wife's daily drivers are in the driveway--No problem--they're not beaters

and if you have a house without an extended garage a lot of newer cars are too long

We have two cars and a golf cart and a two car garage. My wife's car sits in the driveway. What is the problem and why does this NEED to be addressed.

Also, many people have house guest who drive in and keep their cars in the driveway.

Some people seem to find problems every where they look. Calm down and enjoy the great life we have here.

Default Driveway parking

Too many people let their cars hand out of the driveway onto the street which is dangerous.

No such restriction- I gave my old benz to my wife's niece--it was parked in the street for a week while she was visiting us--no problems, no complaints

It's okay as long as you park under the eaves.

Most can’t get vehicles in the garage anyway cause full of junk. No Law against parking in you’re driveway, just restrictions what you can park in driveway. Just be glad they are parking I the drive way and not on sidewalks, grass, rocks, or in street that want made for street parking.

How am I supposed to park my car in the garage when I am running a puppy mill and a lawn ornament manufacturing operation in there? Get real.
