My Neighbor Sent A Cease And Desist Letter Over My Driveway Use.

This may be long bear with me. I live in massachusetts and have a right of way driveway to my property about 50 feet off the street. Our neighbor had his property surveyed about 3 years ago and we both found out that the property line goes about halfway through my driveway. I do have an easement on file with our deed from his property allowing us use of the property to get to ours. Ive had nothing but problems with them ever since. Recently he tried to put boulders on Town owned land at the bottom of the common driveway to stop guests from parking there. I called the town and they made him remove them. He's now really pissed and got a lawyer to write up a cease and desist to me saying that zi can no longet park my cars in my driveway which happens to fall in the easement zone because it says no parking in the easement at any time. The cease and desist says that after June 1st he's going to tow my vehicles out of the driveway because there's no parking in the easement zone. Is the document binding on me? Can he actually tow cars out of an area that's been used and obviously deemed for a driveway use for the last 46 years through 3 residents of the home? Any help or guidance would be helpful. Thank you.
