Cuff Road shop owner places suitcases at store front to prevent illegal parking
Upset over drivers parking illegally outside their business, a shop in Little India has placed suitcases along the store front as deterrence, according to a Facebook post on SGRV Front Man on Monday (Sept 21)."Shop owners with ingenious idea to stop illegal parking at double yellow lines," the post reads.In photographs of the store uploaded with the post, at least four lines of luggage can be seen on the road, stretching beyond the pedestrian pathway outside the shop and covering the double yellow line marker.Traffic cones are also seen near the bags, adding an extra layer of deterrence beyond just the suitcases.A man, presumably the shop owner, is seen standing in front of his merchandise as he watches the road.A separate photograph also uploaded with the post shows an example of exactly what the shop owner is dealing with — a car parked along the roadside in front of a different store.In this photo, suitcases can be seen in the space in front of the car, possibly to dissuade drivers from parking there again.
