A motorist who blocked a driveway had a shock when they returned to find their car had been towed.
Traffic police were called to a street in Manchester on Wednesday morning after a complaint.
The family living at the house in Salford were unable to get out after the vehicle had parked across their drive.
Officers had the vehicle taken away for causing an obstruction and the driver was sent a penalty notice.
According to Manchester Evening News , officers took to Twitter with GMP traffic posted photos of the car blocking in the vehicle.
They wrote: “A patrol was sent to a vehicle causing obstruction in @GMPMonton this morning. Vehicle was blocking in a vehicle on the drive.
"Traffic Offence Report issued & vehicle towed away. PLEASE PARK RESPONSIBLY DON’T BLOCK OTHERS IN.”
The traffic police said that if another vehicle is preventing another from getting off a driveway then it becomes a police matter.
One user wrote: "How utterly selfish of this driver. Would have loved to of seen the reaction when the car wasn’t there when he/she returned!"
