Legal games, threats, police - what ever happened to talking to your neighbour?

Approach him in a friendly, diplomatic manner and be honest.

"Your floodlights currently trigger when we park our cars and they blind us. Could we work together to try and position your sensor so it is still effective in protecting your property but doesn't trigger when we park our cars?"

You could further point out that your triggering of the sensor provides them with a false security threat.

It's funny because we recently upgraded our exterior lights. We have two brick tower thingys on each side of our driveway, at the entrance. Rather than replace the lights attached to them, we got new glass cut. When I installed some new bulbs into them, I found they were really bright. They were 60W. I walked around my property and out onto the street and found that they really cast a lot of light. I also noticed they dimly lit up part of my neighbour's house across the street. So I simply replaced the 60W bulbs with 40W bulbs. Problem solved, the light is dimmer and suits the area much better - without annoying anyone. Had I not noticed and my neighbour(s) had mentioned the lights being too bright, I would have been happy to replace them.
