We share a driveway with our neighbor to the south. In the four years that he's lived there, he had one son mow the lawn once, the other son laid sod in the front yard, and neither he, nor his sons, have ever once shoveled the walk in front of their house, the walk to the porch, or any part of the shared driveway. This year, Bruce decided that with his bad back, shoveling the long driveway was too much. He shovels the walk, but we both have 4WD, so the driveway isn't an issue.
This morning, Bruce cam home from work to find our neighbor stuck in the driveway in his little car. Bruce drove around the block, by which time the neighbor was able to escape the grasp of said driveway. Tonight, said neighbor came home, and it took him at least ten minutes to rock back and forth 'til he got out of the ruts, and into his parking space, straight, without sliding into his back door.
I laugh inside. Hopefully, he'll realize there is merit to shoveling ones' drive, mowing ones' lawn. and taking ones' garbage can to the curb, now that his sons have moved out.

PS
I HATE the snow!
