Make it ILLIGAL to park in Disabled Bays without a Blue Badge
Background
Create legislation prohibiting anyone without a valid Blue Badge from parking in disabled bays in all locations including shopping centres, airports, hospitals and public roads. Back this law with consistent enforcement and penalties so bays remain available for those who need them.
Additional details
Disabled bays are often misused by non-Blue Badge drivers, leaving disabled people without access. This causes hardship, restricts mobility and blocks vital services. My in-laws, both Blue Badge holders, often cannot park because bays are taken. When they ask drivers to move, they are met with aggression or threats. This is unacceptable and shows the urgent need for stronger legal protection, proper enforcement and real deterrents.
