I agree - pay the fine and don't park in a disabled bay again. A close relative of mine is disabled and depends on the disabled spaces at the supermarket (if they're full, she has to come home again, as the other spaces are not wide enough for her to open fully the car door and get out). I have a severe go at anyone I see parking in a disabled space, as it is very inconsiderate behaviour - whether you're there for a minute or half an hour. Just be thankful you're able bodied and spare a thought for those that aren't so fortunate.

If you are the charmer who had a go at me when I was going through chemo and could hardly walk 20 feet.
I hope you meet someone who lamps you one seriously.
If I was able bodied as I fortunately am now and heard you talking to someone the way I was talked to you would be a sorry little man.

You can indeed. It is doubtful whether you would be paid the fine, but you can fine people.

How does one individual issue a fine against another?

There is no fine to be paid.

So ignore it.

How is parking in a disabled bay for 5 mins make him a !!!!, common sense, it was 5 mins not all day. I bet no one wanted the space during that time anyway

1. It isn't a fine.
2. Why do you think you have the right to have a go at whom you please, I hope you get arrested for your behaviour.
3. you assume every one else is able bodied.
4. my own disability is " invisible " , but it's there.

But they may well have.

Not a good argument.
5 minutes - 5 hours no difference if you need something

Supermarket disabled bays are there for the convenience of customers who suffer any type of disability. This may be temporary as in the case of a broken leg or sprained ankle, or permanent whereby a blue badge is usually issued.
Unless you are a qualified medical practitioner, with full access to a persons medical history, you cannot in any way shape or form judge whether a person qualifies to park in these courtesy bays.
To assume you can, and berate a person for what you perceive is wrong, is arrogance in the extreme.

Who do you think you are, Rambo?

Silly little insignificant boy.

I do NOT believe whatsoever your disabled relative has to drive home if there are no disabled bays to park in. I have NEVER been in a supermarket car park where every single disabled space has been taken up EVER. You could still park somewhere in the car park to open the door.

Oh and it's not a fine little insignificant boy.

Why do people park in disabled bays when there are other spaces if you are able bodied? Surely it would negate the thought of being a bottom dropping as you inch your car into a bay which morally is not yours to park in? Unless off course being a bottom dropping comes naturally, off course.
I blame the parents.



Thank you.
PS. I have made up my mind. Any comments to dissuade will be met with silence. If a response is made to my comment it will be ignored and I shall look upon the post as a bottom dropping.

By "bottom droping do you mean shït? Because I had to read your post twice as I thought it was a reference to lowered suspension.
