A crackdown on parking too close to junctions and blocking pavements will begin in Lancaster and Morecambe.
Police have announced that Op Park Safe is being rolled out in the city and the town.
Fines of up to £100 and three points on offenders' driving licenced could be issued.
A post on Lancaster Area Police Facebook page said: "Some will love it and some will hate it, like a jar of Marmite."
"We have had many reports of ongoing issues regarding parking," said the statement.
"These include parking too close to junctions and blocking paths causing obstructions to pedestrians.
"We understand that parking space is a bit limited, and most people do try to park their vehicles responsibly, safely and with consideration to pedestrians and other road users.
"However, there are cases of vehicles blocking pavements and being parked too close to junctions, which make it difficult and dangerous for other road users.
"A rule of thumb is that if a pushchair or wheelchair cannot pass a vehicle without having to go into the road, this is deemed to be an obstruction.
"Op Park Safe aims to tackle these issues and fines of up to £100 as well as three points on the offenders’ licence could be issued."
