Yes please, I may run some off my wife runs about on her electric runner, and hates when she sees these things done. Shame its an american site, but it is a big prob over here too, I'm sure we all have some tales to tell about this, on both sides of the coin

I have often had to struggled, after putting my father's Zafira in a standard width bay, then to leave him enough room to get out after I have set his wheel chair up at the back and try to get it down to the side for him

Even worse with the disco and the wife, she has the runabout that ramps in the back of the disco (16ft of car and 6 foot ramps, plus the runabout itself :shock: ), but if she is not able to use it it is a case of a wheelchair.

Thats good fun as I normally have to move the car to a quieter spot to load and unload and then park up afterwards

If you see an able bodied person park on a disabled parking bay just block them in with your truck & leave them you mobile number on there windscreen, go & sit some where that you can see your them & wait :lol: , it's amazing how humble & opologetic & they can be when they realize that you are about to inform the police & you will be back when youv'e finished your coffee, :wink:

Took SWMBO almost two years to get a space put outside our house.

There's still a car parked half way across it tonight! :evil:

I think I might dragg it off up the road later. :twisted:

you have to be very careful of that though as to how you judge others disabilities, just cos someone looks able bodied doesnt mean they are, someone took it upon themselves to have a go at a friend of mines father cos he parked in a disabled space and they thought he shouldnt as he got out and walked off to the shops, so he unclipped his false arm and took it off and said"happy now then" their face was a picture.
My mother in law is able bodied but cant walk very far and suffers from arthritis and she gets grief as well

If there's a blue badge in the car, no problem.  Even if the owner runs into the shops/house etc. (Mind you, you'd have thought that people with a genuine disability would avoid parking in a disabled space if they were feeling OK at the time since they're going to no what it feels like to find them used by lazy b4st4rds)  If you don't have a badge..........GET ONE :wink:

Our house is in a residential street about a 5 min. walk from the town centre and a 3 min. walk to the railway station. (For an able bodied person).  No disabled person is gonna want to be that far from either of these places.  But people who can't be bothered to pat the £2 or £3 for the station carpark try their luck!!

Even better get a spray can of carpet glue. Print it out onto a A4 sheet and attach to the Lazy Gets windscreen right in front of there view. Then sit back in the distance with a video camera and Record then send it You've Been Framed or Named and Shamed...... If you quick enough you could put a sticker on Each window. How long would that take to remove. In the mean time you are laughing your a** off and people are watching the Lazy sod....

It realy gets on my nerves when people do that....
Poor old people. Takes them an extra 10 mins to walk an extra car space.
