Bad parking affects emergency services
Sat, 19 Mar 2016
Some drivers will wake up to a parking warning after inconsiderate and illegal parking on some of the smaller streets.
Police have appealed to drivers after fire and rescue crews had issues getting through streets in the Empire Terrace area last night.
Fire crews had to get out to fold in wing mirrors and guide the driver down the road because of cars parked on double yellow lines and on the pavement.
The police say they understand parking can be difficult in Douglas but they need to be able to get through the streets unhindered in an emergency.
