'Think before you park' - that's the message from the Island's fire and rescue service.
Its posted a picture on social media of a Fire truck wedged in a tight space between two cars which are parked on pavements.
The message to the public is asking people to think - what if it was your home we couldn't get to?
The service says it knows 'sometimes space can be limited' but is asking people to try and leave enough room for a fire engine to get past should it need to respond to an emergency.
It ends the post by saying "A little consideration of where you park could make a big difference when we respond. Every second counts."
