    Unfortunately, this is not a breach of a strata by-law and is out of our jurisdiction…

    With a bit of imagination (well, not much really), I am sure it would be in breach of a by-law. In the ACT, where I am, default rule 5 states:

    “Use of common property – A unit owner must not use the common property, or permit it to be used, to interfere unreasonably with the use and enjoyment of the common property by an owner, occupier or user of another unit.”

    I am sure all other jurisdictions would have something similarly generic to cover anything unreasonable but unanticipated on common property. Unexpected vehicle movements on common property by a 14 year interferes unreasonably with any residents reasonable expectations about safe use of common property. The 14 year old parent is permitting this and would be in breach in the ACT.
