COPS in East Renfrewshire along with "Parking Pete" visited Neilston Primary School to educate people on "considerate parking" earlier today.

The force, who recently introduced their new recruit Pete as part of a plan to encourage good parking, visited the school this morning.

Taking the small cardboard cut out of a lollipop man to the area, officers aim to use it as a way to promote safe and considerate parking at drop-off and pick-up times.

A spokesperson for East Renfrewshire Police said: "Today Parking Pete visited Neilston Primary to educate on considerate parking.

"He is on a global tour, but due to unprecedented demand, all his dates are in East Renfrewshire.

"He aims to see safe and considerate parking at drop-off and pick-up times.

"Please help us make his day!"
