This is not the ocean. Navy cannot drift from lane to lane. Police need to enforce the law equally no exception for the navy. I have seen navy vehicles park illegally when there is a sign posted "NO PARKING" what is their problem ? Is walking a short distance a problem after parking at a designated spot ?
