Parking in disabled bays

This guy/gal? Will not like what happened here, this is quite common in Nottingham, this was near the city centre

This happened to me once, when I forgot to put the sign in the window when out with the wife, luckily I rang up the department and they checked confirmed that the vehicle was issued with a permit, and they said ok, next time put the thing in the window, and let us off

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

'bout time to.
Both SWMBO and my farther where registered as disabled and had badges and theres always some moron parked in the disabled bay's who have no right to be there

My other big complaint as well is people who park in the mother and toddler spaces. I'm not going to say this is as bad as parking in the disabled bay but it realy gets me worked up to see people with out kid's using these bays. :evil:

Normaly you find its people in cars with the child seat in but no kids.
Normaly once comented to SWMBO so that idiot driver would hear about the invisable children and to my shock they got back in the car and moved it to regular space.

Must admit had to do this once with my father in the local morrisons, it was pouring with rain and I had to get him into a wheelchair to get him into the store, had my son with me too, finished up using a family bay

Somebody said why did you park there, its for families, bad wording, my reply was how much more of a family do you want there is 3 generations here now, I can alway fetch my other daughter  and son and make it for if you like? But the response from an 85 year old guy who was getting wet was not as diplomatic as mine

Must admit only did it because the disabled bays were full, and struggle to get him out of the car into the chair in a normal bay due to the width

But I agree, these bays are there for a reason, and get abused too much through inconsiderate people
