    If I ammy parents out(they both have badges) I park in the disabled bays.
    As they both have badges I can use the bay if I want to as it`s more convenient for them and neither one of them can walk far without struggling
    Are you policing the blue badges as well?
    Any other questions?

    You’re just inconsiderate, nothing wrong with your legs so drop them off and find a place to park. Save the space for those that need it. You’re no better than them in the drop off point.

    You show your complete lack of understanding again, I wonder why your other account is PPr`d.

    No need to respond as I will not do this with you again.

    What's that go to do with my post, if anything, going on your earlier posts, it's you that has a poor attitude and understanding of people with disabilities!

    With reference to my post I simply pointed out that it's already been clearly shown why assigning a badge to a specific vehicle will not work and will actually be detrimental for anyone that requires help with their mobility.

    It's you who clearly has the problem - I am a blue card user - so how can you claim that I have a difficulty in understanding the disabled ?

    So you think that my 93 year old MIL, who is unable to walk at all and has a disabled badge, ought in fact to have to apply and pay for seven disabled badges because that is the number of different cars that family and friends use to take her to and from hospital, clinic and other appointments?

    My mum has a blue badge. Not only does she not own a car, she couldn't drive one if she had it. She's been blind for 70 years.

    Our 8yo son would have difficulty reaching the pedals and seeing over the dash. But he does 'own' a car, as the Motability car is registered in his name :D
