My gran recently went into hospital after she fell at home. She now has a stick to walk with and generally struggles about.
So I take her to the doctors, hospital, shops etc so that she has someone to help her about.
She has one of those disabled car badges so that whatever car she is in can park in the disabled spaces at the hospital, doctors and supermarkets etc.
So we arrive at the supermarket today, its raining and I drive towards the door to where the disabled spaces are. All but one of them are full so we park in it and go to do the shopping.
I check to see if the cars all have the badges and stickers, about 5 out of the 20 or so spaces don't.
At the end I take my gran to sit in the car while my mum goes through the checkout sitting in the car I watch some of the so called "Disabled" folk get into their cars.
And thats what annoys me, those who aren't disabled, don't have the badge or the need to park in the spaces parking in them. Most disabled areas have a space beside the car so that a wheelchair can fit - this makes any ordinary space useless to a wheelchair user.
What I was wondering though is what happens if you do park in one of the disabled spaces and your car is seen by a parking attendant/police etc
Is it a crime?
The ones at one of the big shopping centers detect when the car goes over a sensor and asks to keep them free for disabled users yet others still park in them.
Just P's me off when those who need them can't use them because some mong faced tard is too lazy to park somewhere else.
It is a crime. A car park has the same rules as a road. So, say you go the wrong way round the car park; that could be seen as driving the wrong way down a one-way street. If you park in a disabled space down, say, a housing estate, you can get fined. It's the same in the car park.
Again, this is what I am told.
Just being an arrogant and selfish indivdual
