Drivers reminded to think about where they park

The Fire and Rescue Service is reminding drivers to think about where they park.

It comes as crews undertook access checks and found several vehicles parked poorly which could potentially get in the way of a fire engine.

Performing these checks helps the service's drivers develop their topography, local knowledge and maneuvering skills. 

People are asked to think about where they're parking, as you might save five minutes on your walk from the car, but add five minutes to a lifesaving response.
