I have a car that I park on the street with a bum tranny. It won't get into 3rd gear, but, I still run it up to the corner store every couple of days. Sometimes when I get back, most of the parking spaces are taken so I park it down the street. I'm currently working on getting the title back since it was used to secure a loan. Within a few weeks, I will take it to the scrap yard and be done with it.
If some bone-head had an issue with it sitting in front of their house and had it towed even though I follow the law and move it as required, I would be pissed. And, no, if the same idiot asked me to move it, I would tell them to pound sand too because it IS a public street.
It sounds to me that he parked in front of your place to just rub you the wrong way.
Still a bone-head move on your part.
