Inconsiderate and indiscrimate parking despite obvious "No Parking" indicators.

This is a regular weekly if not daily, inconvenience and frustrating situation at the corner of the HDB Car Park KB14 near the end of Block 71, Kallang Bahru where the popular NTUC Fairprice Supermarket is located (see attached below).

 
 
 
Our office is at 535, Kallang Bahru, GB Point (the former Mandarin Theatre) and our car park and loading bays are located at the back of the building with access only via the HDB Car Park KB14.  On an almost daily basis, we get vehicles, both private salon cars and commercial goods vehicles parking right at the end of Blk 71, smacked across the access road to the back of 535, Kallang Bahru, GB Point (marked in yellow in attached map).

Do these drivers really think just before they decide that this is the correct place to leave their vehicles?  Do they notice the double yellow lines clearly marked on the sides of the road?  Did they notice that there is an access road leading to another building that by leaving their vehicles, this will mean now "no access"!  Of course these drivers eventually returned to their vehicles with, by then, irate drivers like myself fuming mad.  Especially so when we have got to get to another place quickly and obviously not able to now by the discourtesy of these inconsiderate drivers.  Two of the drivers from the vehicles in these photos actually left their vehicles there so as to get their lunches from the popular Geylang Bahru Market Food Centre.  Their Singapore stomachs comes first obviously.

If you look at the attached map carefully, this location is barely 50-70 metres away from the Moulmein-Kallang Town Council Head Office!!!  Even they who ought to have an interest it such happenings just under their noses, have not noticed this!  Why do we pay maintenance and taxes for?  :-( :-(

Can Idiots Really Think ???

Photo below was after they were told to move, and the driver was reluctant too!  Replied that they are SP Services!
