“A curbcut can lead to a front yard.”
Then it isnt illegal to park there.
Meno has it right.
A driveway doesnt entitle you to a free parking space on the street. You cant have a “Driveway” that is actually a lawn, or finished garage that his actually a bedroom. Then it isnt a driveway. The law allows you access to your driveway therefore nobody else can park there blocking you.
There is a dispensation for the homeowner t o block his own driveway. Though even there, it is limited “provided that such lot does not contain more than two dwelling units”
The classic example is a cafe that has tables for seating in their driveway. If the tables are bolted to the ground. It is no longer a driveway and anybody can park there. IF the tables are not bolted, then nobody can park there except the owner (unless more than 2 dwellings are contained therein)
