Yes, I have gotten a psak that it could apply here, but specifically in a case where there’s no other way to get the car out of the way, and it’s actually blocking your access to your driveway, not merely making it more difficult to get in or out.. If the response time of the police and tow truck company is too slow to be of any help in getting the car away faster (because the owner will most likely move his car before it’s towed away), and you’re calling the police just because you’re angry and/or want to teach the guy a lesson, it would indeed be assur.

Practically speaking, that means unless you live in area where the response time is extremely quick, the only time it would be muttar would be if it’s a long term situation, such as if the guy parked blocking the driveway and went away for the weekend.
