The force outlined 14 rules that must be adhered to by motorists during parades and celebrations.
These include not using spray paint on cars, not obstructing traffic or parking in undesignated areas.
People cannot change the colour of their vehicles, over-tint their car window glass, or obscure licence plates.
Drivers and passengers will not be allowed to leave their vehicles on roads with their engines running and pedestrians are urged to cross at designated areas only.

It said inappropriate writing and stickers on vehicles are not allowed and urged people to avoid taking part in random crowding and parades.
