'[My] driveway is constantly blocked': Brooklyn resident infuriated by people parking in their driveway

New York parking is no joke. It's a battle at the best of times.

If driving stresses you out, don't ever drive in New York City! It's super stressful, and it's nearly impossible to ever find parking. Even in Brooklyn, where traffic tends to be lighter, parking problems still arise. 

One Brooklyn resident shared that they live near the beach (Maybe Coney Island? It's a popular tourist spot, though the OP didn't specify). Random people will constantly park in the OP's driveway. It must be infuriating to deal with! So the OP went to r/Brooklyn to get some advice on how to deal with these randos stealing their precious space. 

Commenters left suggestions, both ethical and less-than-ethical. The person who suggested putting lentils on the tires — just why? However, some suggestions were more constructive, like telling the OP to invest in a jersey barrier or become friendly with local organizations that might be able to help. Then, check out another story here.
