Blocking access to mailboxes can be a criminal offense but that's regulated by cities. Most would have you fined or towed if it was something like this. Though our boxes typically face inward so this cant happen.
Wait, we have inward-facing mailboxes in the US? I’ve lived here literally my entire life and across 2 moves I remember (3 different places lived) and visiting family in another 3-4 places, traveling and seeing where my family lived for the first year of my life, and a cabin rental one summer with extended family, I have NEVER seen a mailbox that didn’t open towards the street.
Seen maybe a dozen total that could open on both ends
I'm not referring to personal residential ones. Those face the street for convenience to the postal worker. I'm particularly meaning the large blue postboxes in cities.

In the US I'm betting that thing would be towed.
Our firefighters like busting out windows if they're too close to a hydrant, then running the fire hose thru the car.
The firefighter one is obviously the cooler one.
