When are you going to start enforcing the punishment for these offences? @DerbyshireRPU @DerbysPolice
We have seen this at the summit of A57, users are reporting this with evidence. It happens all year round, in all weathers.
It is amazing how people can continue to be so inconsiderate on this stretch of road at the summit! In all weathers, cars have been seen parked on both sides, usually, but not always, on double yellow lines & overhanging the carriageway.
Is it too much to ask to not park here?!
A lot of parked cars at the peak of #A57 Snake Pass, making it a tight squeeze for two way traffic.

We’ve just had a driver travel over the #A57 Snake Pass. It’s clear and passable. Update shared with us at 12:20.
Temperatures very likely to have been as low as -10°C last night so expect there to be icy surfaces.
How is everyone going on today with travel?
Hearing conflicting information on the radio vs the @Derbyshirecc website. Radio says closed. Website says open
Who has travelled on the road today?
