🚙📸 Eryri: Instagram Spot or Parking Lot?
Visitors flocked to the snowy slopes of Yr Wyddfa, eager to capture those dreamy Instagram shots. But, instead of pristine views, chaos ensued! 🚫🚗
Tourists ditched cars along icy, narrow roads, causing traffic jams and potential safety hazards (yikes!). North Wales Police weren’t having any of it. Inspector Jason Diamond expressed his disappointment over the “ridiculous parking” and the snowball effect of “If they do it, so will I.” ❄️
Amidst the photogenic frenzy, safety rules were tossed aside like unwanted Christmas gifts. Inspector Diamond emphasized that beauty doesn’t trump common sense. “Our brief snow flurries leave most of us unprepared for icy driving,” he explained. Yet, the urge to snap and share led visitors to push boundaries, risking damaged cars or worse.
Councillor Craig ab Iago chimed in, urging visitors to plan their trips wisely. “These stunning scenes demand respect! Ensure your visit doesn’t turn into a roadblock,” he urged. 🏔️🤳
Before heading to the winter wonderland, check the weather, heed parking regulations, and prioritise safety. Remember, it’s not just about the perfect pic—it’s about enjoying the beauty responsibly. 🌨️✨
