How come the man with two ASBO teenagers in his car and also the woman with a 10 year old who can run faster than me are allowed to park right by the front door, but a couple of pensioners (being old is not a disability) had to park at the far end of the car park.
Surrey Phil May 2015 9:57pm, 28 May 2015 893 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil I tend to find that the Parent & Child parking is often used by people without any children in the car. There are usually too many bays set aside for disabled people, most of which are empty while the rest of us have difficulty finding a space elsewhere.
Tecnikal May 2015 10:12pm, 28 May 2015 20 posts	Quote Pin Tecnikal It's probably one of the most abused parking rules ever. No spaces set aside for pregnant or elderly but priority parking for families. It doesn't make sense. I did however park in one once when I was about 30, but I was with my mum so it was allowed.
Surrey Phil May 2015 10:21pm, 28 May 2015 895 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil My 10 year old tells me the same thing and he is very capable of walking from car to shop, so when does it stop? Blue Badge holders (or should I say their relatives) do abuse the system by using them when the elderly or disabled person isn't even there.
