Police slam driver dropping kids off outside school despite living 200m away

A driver has been slammed for double parking while dropping children outside a school despite living less than 200 metres away.

The Toyota driver was handed a £100 fine and three penalty points on their licence, according to Birmingham Live .

The bizarre incident took place on Friday morning at school in Birmingham.

According to police, an on-duty officer spotted the driver dropping off their child outside the school in the inner-city area yesterday.

They later found out the driver lives just 200 metres away from the school.

Therefore, the police took it to social media and posted on Twitter to warn other parents for road safety.

The post read: “Please remember if you live close enough to the school to walk. THEN WALK.

“Let’s not endanger children’s lives…3 points and £100 fine in the post.”

Later they added the extra information that said: “It transpires that the driver of the Toyota lives less than 200 metres from the school.

“It would probably be faster to walk, and considerably cheaper!
