oh god yes, the people who park on the road when they have multi car drives to save having to shuffle cars every now and then do my nut in.

My neighbors and I have the same driveway shape and size.
I can fit around 6-7 cars in mine if I valet for everyone.
Although, that's more like 4 cars if I just let random guests do their thing.

My neighbor calls it quits after the first car and then uses the street for their other 2.

I also don't really understand why you'd need 3+ cars for 2 people when one of them works from home and the other is retired, but they could at least learn to park them.

Doubly so in the winter when the street ones get buried in snow when the plow comes by. Shrug.

It your using them every day I can get (but don't agree) with the hassle of shuffling them. But if they are still and your just reserving space you don't need them your a *unt

They get out of the house maybe once a week and the ones in the street get used maybe once every other month. I don't get it, but whatever.
People are weird.
