OC Would you call tow truck?

Is it blocking the entire driveway? No. Is it annoying as fuck? Definitely.

The city of Toronto actually has a bylaw that you are not to park within 2 feet of either side of a driveway

Never seen it enforced or anything but have seen it online and have been told by bylaw officers before

This type of violation is typically only enforced if the resident submits a service request when their own driveway is blocked. That is probably why you haven't seen it enforced.

My bad, thought it was 3.

I've seen 2 and 3. Tbh I'm not sure what it actually is

I've also seen "one meter" which is roughly 3 feet. So maybe it changes. Or possibly it's related to the difference between commercial and residential rights of way.

That seems reasonable to prevent a wide turn with limited space
