Parking on Girrawheen Avenue, when the AFL is playing or training, weeknights or game days, ask any resident it’s a dangerous task driving past the oval with cars and Ute's parked on both sides of the road, especially the bend near the playground, you have less than a few centimeters between side mirrors and the fear of kids coming out behind parked cars is a constant fear.

If there was a fire there is no way a fire engine could access past these vehicles, the other week a tourist in a camper van got stuck with no option to reverse back to turn causing traffic chaos. When we had the Kiama Beach Tag all cars were instructed by a parking Marshall to park on the sidewalk creating a easy and safe passage for all traffic. I support the local AFL teams, but I fear a serious incident will occur unless they follow the lead of beach tag parking plan.

PS Bugle reporters feel free to travel down Girrawheen on training , or day night games with your dashcam to experience the issue.
