    Be careful of parking on double yellows. If they have those wee vertical yellow stripes drawn down from the pavement, then blue badge holders can't park there.


    Also, in England, there's a time limit, usually three hours, if parking on single or double yellow lines, so you would need to use your clock disc.

    We were in Keighley a couple of years back, and needed to be there more that the three hours the disabled bays had stipulated. A parking enforcement official was there, and she told me that if instead we parked a few places up, in the pay and display bays, we could park there all day for free.

    Obviously. But it's a lot more convenient than searching for a disabled bay somewhere.
