Actually, depending on the bylaws, you may have the right to do that.
When the person next door wanted to repair a leak in his basement, the contractor decided to take out my fence and go through my yard to fix it.
Nobody asked me about this. They just did it.
They left everything there to continue the next day, including a bobcat mini back hoe.
I waited for them the next day, informed them about tress-passing and finders keepers etc, and told them that they would not be allowed to come on my property to collect anything, that they would have to fix all damage and i am keeping the bobcat finders keepers, my property etc.
When they called the cops, they had no permit, and tried to say i stole the bobcat.
They were charged, and i got paid big.....
In other words, you can probably post a no tress passing sign on your lawn and keep the car.
Check with the city or go to the do-nut shop and ask a cop.

You should be able to call the police and ask their opinion. I believe you have the right to have the vehicle towed away everytime they park in your driveway. You can not keep the car, but you can certainly have it removed legally! You may want to leave a note on the windshield just to be nice and let them know what may happen if they continue to park in/block your driveway. Good luck.

Put an invoice on their window everytime they do it for parking charges, use of space, wasting your time etc. If its the same person each time they may get sick of you doing it and not bother. Or make sure you catch them getting in their one day and ask them for the payments they owe you. Oh and dont forget to add they will get clamped if you see them there again!! And as a final resort get a great lump of timber or steel and block the driveway so they cant get out !! Whatever you do dont do any physical damage otherwise you would be in trouble.

No, you can not keep it just because it is in your driveway. However, you can have it towed. Please bear in mind that this is only an option if it is a private driveway, and you own or have a valid lease on the property.
Contact your police department non-emergency line and ask how to handle the situation legally. Document each conversation you have with the person, informing them they are not welcome. Both towing and trespassing warrants are options.

Put a sign up parking $5.00 an hour and then call the tow company if they don't pay.! you could always use it as a work bench to paint those pretty pink cabinets.
I don't think you can keep it though.

hmmm tough one i would ask them to move it if they dont or they get funny about it then accidently scratch it i'm sure that once they realise that it is being scrayched then they will want to move it or just call a clmper and get them to clamp it and say well you are parked on private property. lol
If non of this works get the police involved. good luck.

Get it wheel clamped and then charge them £20,000 to unlock it. Then you can buy yourself a better car than that one . After keying it and removing the wheels to sell on ebay of course! Good luck.That'll teach em cheeky f***ks.

What can I do if someone is parked on my land?
As the vehicle is on private land, it is for you (or the owner of the land) to solve the problem.
The following suggestions may help you.
* Ask around to see if you can find out who the driver is or get information about when the vehicle was left.
* You may be able to arrange for your local authority to remove the vehicle. In return for this service there may be a charge which you could claim from the vehicle’s owner if you find out who he or she is.
* Get legal advice from your solicitor or from your local citizens' advice bureau.
* Contact us again if you have further evidence or information which suggests there is something suspicious about the vehicle.

Just leave a note on that person's car, if that does not work bust the damn windows out...They will get the message sooner or later.
