Unlikely. The neighbour knows how much his car juts out by. They just don't care.It’s good to talk, perhaps that might sort the problem?
If he parked an estate car or a big SUV in the same space, taking up the same extra metre, would you still be complaining?HI,
thanks all.
its jutting into the part of the cul-de-sac that is effectively the 'road'; its a key-hole shaped dead end. the parking spaces at the start of the cul-de-sac are parallel to the path / road and when the road widens the spaces are perpendicular to the path (where he parks). His car is jutting out by 2/2.5 foot and sticks out (out of line) with all the other cars parked there.
I spoke to a Dublin City Clamper the other day who gave me a number to call; he was saying that he can only clamp if the offending vehicle is more than 50% outside the space OR if the car is blocking the road, i.e. there isn't sufficient space for other cars to pass. He agreed that what the neighbor is doing is obnoxious, but would probably not be a clamping offence for him. He gave me a number to call and said in these situations someone would normally call to the owner and ask them to tidy up their car etc.
There is little or no point in engaging with this individual - he loves to be controversial!!
thanks again
If he parked a transit van or a one of the obscenely large Ford Rangers or something, what would you be thinking?It is a large estate car he has;

If at first you don't succeed, try again.If he parked a transit van or a one of the obscenely large Ford Rangers or something, what would you be thinking?
Why do you think the bike rack is the issue, and not the space taken by the bike rack?If at first you don't succeed, try again.
The issue isn't the car, it is the bike rack.
Because the OP said so.Why do you think the bike rack is the issue, and not the space taken by the bike rack?
There is an interesting question as to why a bike rack taking up space is an issue, but a large vehicle taking up the same or more space isn't an issue.Because the OP said so.
That's because the large vehicle is a straw man argument and is not relevant.There is an interesting question as to why a bike rack taking up space is an issue, but a large vehicle taking up the same or more space isn't an issue.
It would kind-of suggest that the problem here isn't about taking up space imho.That's because the large vehicle is a straw man argument and is not relevant.
