"Update: Fire victims were trapped on roof, firetrucks blocked from rescue by illegally parked cars"

You can bet parking enforcement will be clamping down on the parking-too-close-to-intersection issue.

Even the mayor parks illegally on the narrow street he lives on and seems to think nothing of it.
