How do you report a car blocking your driveway?

My neighbor’s nanny always parks in front of our house and regularly blocks our driveway. Who do you call if someone is parked in front of your driveway?

How frustrating!
The first thing you should do is call 311not to be confused with 911. Tell the operator there’s a vehicle blocking your driveway, as well as the location, the plate number, and the type of vehicle. A police unit will be sent to issue that vehicle a ticket.
It’s important to note you can report a vehicle that is partially or fully blocking your driveway. There is no guarantee, however, that the police will ticket the driver.
Alternatively, if you’d like to have the vehicle
towed
, you can contact a private towing company.
Bad parking jobs can be frustrating, but saving money on your car insurance shouldn’t be.
