A RESIDENT has claimed his neighbour kept cutting across his driveway – before revealing his revenge.
Curtis Patterson, from Sheffield, said he was fuming after his next-door neighbour allegedly scraped his bins and front steps while parking in their shared drive.

He claims he lost his patience with his neighbour’s dodgy parking and decided to get petty revenge – by partitioning the drive with two planter beds.
Ring doorbell footage appears to show the moment Curtis’s neighbour allegedly arrived home after he put the planter beds on their drive.
She can allegedly be seen reversing into the drive smoothly, apparently mindful of the new planter beds.
But just as she finishes her turn, her front wheel appears to catch one of the planter beds and sends it spinning into the side of Curtis’s motor.
A heated argument can be overheard before a woman is allegedly seen putting the planter bed back in place.
Curtis claimed: “We got planters literally today. You can’t make it up.”
Locals were baffled by the hilarious turn of events.
Darcie said: “How can you be that bad at driving?”
Sam said: “Fill the planters with cement.”
James said: “If I were you I’d build a wall right on the boundary.
Shared driveways: know your rights
Here are your rights if you have a shared driveway, according to Checkatrade:
It’s best to consult your title deeds to find out exactly what terms and conditions apply to you and your neighbours.
It may be that you and your neighbour each own part of the drive, or that one you owns all of it but the other has a right of way.
You could fall foul of the law if you block your neighbour’s right of way to their home, and it’s also expected that you both do your bit to maintain the driveway.
There is no automatic right to store your bins on your driveway, and they could potentially count as obstructions.
By far the best option is to come to an agreement with your neighbour about your shared use of the driveway.
“Give them a proper narrow driveway.”
It comes after a dad said he can’t park on his own drive without damaging his car after the local council made a huge blunder.
Another man has hit back at his neighbours for whingeing his caravan blocks the pavement outside their homes – saying he’s kept it their for years.
