His car wouldn't have been damaged if he wasn't using my drive…\"\n\n### LATEST NEIGHBOUR ROWS\n\n\n\n\n * Neighbour from hell sentenced for fat shaming homeowner and calling her a 'waste of a human life'\n * Man moves in next door to 150-year-old pub - then 'tries to shut it down' with noise complaints\n * John Lennon's local pub wins planning row despite neighbours complaining over noise\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nWith his now damaged car, he allegedly got \"really aggressive\" and said the previous homeowners never had a problem with his use of the driveway.\n\nHe then threatened to \"call the police and a solicitor about the damage to his car\", according to the poster.\n\nThe anonymous woman said that she has not heard anything from her neighbour since, and said she \"felt a bit intimidated by him\".\n\nOne commenter on the post said: \"He’s an idiot if he calls the police over this.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nAnother said: \"He hasn't got a leg to stand on and possibly he hopes you'll worry and fret over this, waiting to hear from police/solicitors and the like.\n\n\"Don't give him the satisfaction and put his stupid actions out your mind.\"\n\nHowever, not all social media users were in agreement with the homeowner.\n\nOne commenter wrote: \"So let me get this straight, to get off his drive, which he parks on rather than blocking the road further, he drives on your drive. And instead of talking to him about it, you stick rocks in the way to stop him.\"\n\nThe anonymous poster added: \"Firstly, in what way is he inconveniencing you?\n\n\"Secondly, why didn't you speak to him if you are so upset and let him block the road instead.\n\n\"Thirdly, yes the damage is down to him, he drove into a stationary rock, even if it was on the pavement... what is so difficult about being a good neighbour and letting him just drive into your drive... are you that petty?\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
