Officials do not hide that most visitors forget how and where it is possible to park cars, and the signs on the Palanga bridge become “invisible”.
Palanga and the guests admiring the seashore did not cause many problems for the officers, but not all managed to leave the cars culturally.
In just a few hours, careless drivers received the most tickets. A boy with flowers and a girl, Toyota left the car at a T-junction. The guy didn’t immediately understand why he was fined, but officials explained that parking the car in this manner was prohibited and dangerous.
“I’m sorry, I don’t think so,” replied the young man, who promised to pay the fine as soon as possible and left with the girl who arrived with the flowers.
City patrols had to remind a grown man and woman who accompanied him that it was forbidden to pass on any part of the road. The man and woman paid for the comment, but after speaking with officers as they said goodbye, the man assured them that he was a former police chaplain.
Kaunas residents who arrived on scooters on J. Basanavičiaus Street did not even stop at the bridge, although traffic signs clearly indicate that traffic is prohibited here. The Kaunas couple admitted that they hadn’t even seen what the signs were and began to apologize to officials. For such an offense, the couple’s stay will be increased by 20 euros, since both received a fine for the first time.
“And what is the fine for?” Mažeikiai residents were surprised by leaving their car just after the Birutės street junction. The two couples were already preparing to leave Palanga when they saw the police “gift” left by the windshield wiper. The newcomers did not see that they had left their cars in a part of the lane near the intersection and before the end of the continuous line of road markings. Probably the majority of these violations, according to police officers, is that people simply forget that parking a car actually blocks traffic and forces other road users to cross a continuous line of road markings.
On the way to Vytauto Street, a young man driving on a skateboard could not hear an electric police car. The guy, driven by a dog, got upset when the beacons on the police car next to him started flashing, and when he got a comment that he was putting himself and the animal in danger, the guy said “I went in” . The young man who earned the fine claimed that he lived here in Palanga, but did not think he was acting too brave.
Already on Vytauto Street, the agents were caught by a BMW car parked near the church. Only disabled drivers or their family members who have brought them can stop here. The two young men did not have any document proving their disability, so not even the activated alarm helped to evade the fine.
A little further down the same street, next to the renovated Kurhaus, the signs for the disabled are also not visible to everyone. The officers who run the second lap around this place make no secret of the fact that quite a few drivers are bravely parking their cars here. A few meters away, another sign indicates that everyone can park now. However, after seeing the officers, one of the drivers questioned and came over and asked if he could still park the cars for free in Palanga.
Police officers say a larger movement of people is just beginning on the seashore, but neither locals nor guests will be left unattended. A more expensive stay will cost no one as long as arrivals follow signs and traffic regulations.
