Will Flage-Yeats has lived in Corinda since 2001, but said the problem with drivers parking across his driveway was increasing. “It’s just become 10 times worse to the point where I can’t get in my driveway,” he said. “I brought my (newborn) son home and I had to get out of my car and tell a driver to move out of my driveway so I could get into my house.” Mr Flage-Yeats said he had also been abused by people after he asked them to move their illegally parked car.
