INCONSIDERATE van drivers have been slammed by councillors for causing havoc on a town high street.
It has been claimed van drivers are parking in spaces too small for their vehicles in Manningtree’s High Street, leaving them sticking out into the road and forcing other drivers to stop and give way to oncoming traffic.
Manningtree Town Council deputy mayor Mark Morsley raised concerns at the council’s meeting.
He said: “In the last two weeks, I don’t know how many times I have had to give way because an idiot has parked there.
“Two-thirds of their van is parked out in the road.”
