120 car owners advertising for sale on roadsides forced to remove them

MORE than 120 car owners advertising their vehicles for sale on the roadsides of Co Cork have removed them after being advised they were in contravention of a local bylaw.

Among those were 81 owners issued with warnings from the county council’s south Cork administrative area – which covers such places as Youghal, Midleton, Cobh, Glanmire, Blarney, Kinsale, Bandon and Macroom.

These owners were given notice their vehicles would be removed and put into storage if not removed within 24 hours. They were also informed they would be liable for removal and storage costs.
