This morning our driveway and our neighbour's driveway were both blocked by this:
After about five minutes of me obviously waiting to get out, the driver moved it out of the way. I told him that I'd be back soon and would need to get back onto our driveway.
Ten minutes later I returned to find that he'd put it back in exactly the same place, so I couldn't get back in.
Five minutes later, after some verbal encouragement, he moved it again. By that time my Mum's car had turned up. I pulled onto the drive and my Mum's car followed me in.
Then the van was put back in exactly the same place yet again, thus blocking in both cars.
More verbal encouragement ensued. The van stayed there for another twenty minutes.
He's gone now. Maybe he's gone to look up some of the words I used as verbal encouragement.
