Tianjin Northern News Network: Drivers who frequently drive along Liberation South Road will notice the Bohai Auto Parts City and a large number of nearby car 4S stores stretching for several kilometers. Cars of all kinds are lined up here. Merchants park some of their cars for sale, test-drive cars, and employee cars proudly on the auxiliary roads in front of their own stores. Buyers who cannot find parking spaces also park wherever they can. The auxiliary road, which should be unobstructed, has become a large "free parking lot."
The on-duty personnel at the gate of the Bohai Auto Parts City said: "There aren't many parking spaces available for consumers throughout the entire auto parts city. During peak hours on weekends, it's difficult to find a parking space within half an hour. As a result, many car owners park on the road when they can't find a parking space inside. Parking on the road also carries risks because you never know when the traffic police will come to issue a ticket. Also, there are too many vehicles coming and going, making it easy for accidents to happen."
In nearby car 4S stores, this situation is no exception. Besides the occupation of the road, there is a new situation where vehicles driving against the traffic flow may appear. It was found that the nearest exit to the Bohai Auto Parts City is on Zhujiang Road. Some drivers enter the auxiliary road from Zhujiang Road and "drive against the traffic" because if they don't drive against the traffic, they will have to drive an extra four or five kilometers.
Regarding the traffic problems on the auxiliary road of Liberation South Road, Captain Liu of the Xiqing Development Zone Traffic Police Team said that any vehicle occupying city roads is prohibited. There are more violations of parking rules on the auxiliary road of Liberation South Road because there are many people here, high mobility, and frequent vehicle traffic, making management quite challenging. In the future, they will pay more attention to managing this area and increase penalties.
