You do have to worry about the home mechanic who buries all the old oil and antifreeze in his backyard, or pours it down the sewer, when they should be collecting it in containers and taking it down to the local auto parts store, they usually offer free disposal. In our township, you're not allowed to have a 'disabled' vehicle in your driveway. That means a vehicle that doesn't have current registration. You also can't park an RV or boat on your property for longer than 5 days in a row. And you can't park your vehicles on the grass. In high school a friend and I tore the engine and transmission out of his car, in his mom's driveway. After a couple days they got a letter from the township, and we had to push the car into the garage. There are no rules to what you can have or do inside of your garage (as long as it's illegal), which makes sense. We have a neighbor down the road with 6 cars in their driveway. Some don't have engines in them, some have a tarp over them, the rest they shuffle around parking in the street and such so they can go to work or wherever. It's a nuisance but nobody has yet to call in a complaint. I guess the worst case scenario is the unlicensed home mechanic who has several vehicles that are not theirs, in various states of disrepair, scattered all over the property. People are always waiting on parts, or money to fix the car, days turn to weeks, weeks turn to months...
