Illegal parking on base creates safety hazards Published July 27, 2011 By Virgil Mitchell 81st Training Wing safety chief KEESLER AIR FORCE BASE, Miss. -- Parking spots are sometimes hard to find at Keesler. Some drivers glance around and see an empty spot and pull right in if their vehicle fits. This haphazard method of parking is illegal. Legal parking spots are marked on both sides by white lines, either diagonal or horizontal, or a white "T". Parking in any area not marked this way is prohibited by Keesler Instruction 31-204. Parking on seeded areas, on troop walks and at the student dormitories in the Triangle also is not allowed. Additionally, it's illegal to park with the driver's side of the vehicle nearest the curb, instead of the passenger's side. At Keesler, if it's not marked for parking, then it's a "no parking" area.
