Drivers have been targeted in a new parking awareness campaign in Northern Ireland, aimed at tackling the impact of inconsiderate parking on disabled people, older residents and families with young children.The initiative, launched by Ards and North Down Borough Council in Northern Ireland, warned motorists that everyday parking decisions can create serious barriers for pedestrians.The slogan "you have a choice - we don't" has been designed to highlight how some people can easily navigate around parked vehicles, while others, such as wheelchair users, people with visual impairments, older residents and parents with prams, may be left with no safe alternative route at all.
