A homeowner got the perfect revenge on a cheeky driver who left her car in his driveway to attend a neighbour's party.
The raging man returned from work to find the stranger had parked outside his home. So he left his own motor just inches from its bumper so the woman was unable to drive away.
Better still, when she came to retrieve her car after leaving the party, he said he was unable to move his vehicle as he had been drinking. When the police turned up, he even answered the door after grabbing a beer from the fridge, reports the Mirror.

His "petty revenge" move meant the woman was only eventually able to get her care. when he moved his four days later. He said: "I came home from work to find someone on our block was having a large party and someone decided they were entitled to park in my driveway.
"Keep in mind my driveway is a single car width lined with a retaining wall on both sides and a garage at the end. It is essentially impossible for a tow truck to come pull them out without property damage. Seeing this and the lack of street parking I took this as a cue to park right behind them in my driveway."
The man received a knock on the door a few hours later from the "entitled parker" demanding him to move his car so she could drive away - but he wasn't in the mood for any of that.
"Seeing as they were demanding, I informed them that I had been drinking and would not move my car," he added on Reddit. "When the police knocked on my door, I was sure to grab a beer from the fridge before I answered to talk to the officer.
"I had informed him that after I got home I was unwinding and had been drinking and was in no shape to drive. At this point their hands were tied because they couldn’t tow her car out, I’m in no shape to drive, and I’m legally parked in my driveway."
Continuing his revenge, he informed the woman that he wasn't due back into work until Tuesday - so she was welcome to collect her car then.
While most users couldn't help but laugh at his "petty revenge", others shamed the woman for her "entitled audacity to park in someone else's driveway without permission".
One user said: "What is it with people? I feel bad if I park in front of someone's house; I would never presume to just pull on in. People suck." Another user added: "The XXL audacity of calling the coppers on the owner of said driveway."
A third user said: "A valuable lesson is being taught to this woman. Do not park in other people's driveways. I'm sure for the rest of her life she'll remember this." In the UK, local authorities do not have the power to remove vehicles that are parked on private properties without permission.
However, they can help if a car is parked on a public road blocking a driveway as the driver is committing a parking offence and they will be likely fined for it.
