Parking Eye + Disabled Blue Badge

in response to the question ' was the ticket issued for overstaying' the answer is yes and no, you can park free for 30mins apparently but i was there for 48mins, i didn't purchase a ticket because i thought blue badge holders could park for free.:(
...and they can - or at least disabled people can take longer than able-bodied people! Read the answers & links, the BB scheme is irrelevant.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

If they’re also Blue Badge holders, they don't need to display it. The Equality Act doesn't say that able-bodied drivers can't also use disabled parking bays. OK, maybe they shouldn't, but they can. Doing so probably contravenes the terms & conditions for the car park, which usually state that you shouldn't park in a disabled bay without displaying a Blue Badge. This, in itself, contravenes The Equality Act. <snip>

Then you continue to ignore them.
As stated in the handbook given when you get a BB - Blue Badges DO NOT have any relevence in private car parks.
One car park local to me states you display an appropriate blue badge, I fancy taking my disabled mother in law and displaying

You start a thread about AMPCO Parking Solutions Limited, instead of hijacking one about a totally different company.
Otherwise, the answer is absolutely no different - The Blue Badge scheme does not apply here, so go and read your handbook! Then IGNORE and forget about them!
And you can help everyone else by arranging to have any letters they send you uploaded here - See the Letter chain thread for etails. 0
