yellowline

I live in Queens in New York City. I parked my car in front of a house in a residential neighborhood. It looks like the homeowner painted a yellow line in yellow paint on the curb on his driveway and a liberal way on each side of his driveway. It looks like he drives a van and probably wants extra space. There was plenty of space for a vehicle to turn into the driveway and my car was in this person's yellow painted area by about 4 inches. When I returned to my car several hours later I found a parking ticket on my car.
I wonder whether the homeowner called the police or the police officer was influenced by the paint. I want to know what is the law for parking next to a driveway in the street and not blocking any part of the curved area where the curb lowers from sidewalk level to the street.
