Even as complaints regarding illegally parked vehicles and abandoned ones flood Mumbai Traffic Police’s email and Twitter handle everyday, the cops are faced with a new problem. They have no space to park these vehicles after towing them away. Hence, Commissioner of Mumbai Police, Subodh Jaiswal has written a letter to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Chief Ajoy Mehta requesting him to allot the open space on the Sion-Panvel highway for the purpose, as the place has been lying vacant since the Octroi Naka shut down.

Speaking to mid-day, a senior police officer said, "On an average 300-400 abandoned and illegally parked vehicles are towed away daily. Our email and Twitter handle are flooded with complaints from citizens, but the space crunch in the city is restricting us from taking action against offenders. In order to take action, we need to park the seized vehicles, and that is where the problem starts."
