Is this anti-social behaviour? No.
If your someone is parking in a manner which obstructs your ability to enter or leave your home or allocated parking space, try speaking to them first, they may not be aware their actions are causing you a problem.
If the problem continues you’ll be able to take the following action:
Is this anti-social behaviour? No.
If you’ve noticed a car that you believe to be abandoned, start by speaking to your neighbours to see if they know who owns the car.
If you have made enquiries and no-one knows, make a note of the registration number and make of the car.
If the vehicle is in one of our car parks, please contact us though your MyAccount. Once we’ve received your report, we’ll make contact with the DVLA to see if there is a registered keeper. If there is, we will make contact with them.
If not, we’ll make arrangements to get the car removed. This process can take up to 10 weeks.
If the car is on a public road, please contact the local authority.
If you believe the vehicle is stolen, please contact the Police on 101 who will attend and recover the vehicle if it’s stolen.
Is this anti-social behaviour? Yes.
Some people think that this is harmless fun, however regular anti-social vehicle use can have a wider impact on neighbourhoods than simply nuisance noise and may include:
Drivers and riders risk injuring themselves and other road users, cyclists and pedestrians. Driving or riding in this way is also a form of intimidation, either to the road user or the community.
If you know the people involved and you feel safe to do so, talk to them – they may not know they are causing a nuisance.
You can report the incident to the police. If you do this, let us know – our online ASB reporting form on your MyAccount – so we can work with them and agree the next steps.
