Disabled parking space schemes Reason for annoyance:"Why should the disabled get all the best parking spaces?" by Mercool McCaber About Disabled parking spaces scheme:I'm not looking for a war of words with Britain's disabled here, but this scheme really needs changing. Fact is, that these "blue-badges" are handed out willy-nilly to a group of people other than those with mobility trouble: and that's the bone idle. Furthermore, the badges themselves are often passed around friends and relatives. The original holder of some of these badges has died. I don't mind disabled spaces in "proper" car-parks being right outside the front door, but I despise those on-street spaces reserved exclusively for the use of blue-badge holders. They are invariably unused whilst the rest of us hunt around trying to find spaces in even the smaller towns and cities.
I suggest they scrap the entire scheme and use the money saved to pay for taxis. FACT: Disabled parking space schemes are more irritating than Chris Moyles but less irritating than Simon Cowell You may also find Parking in Parent Spaces without Children and 4x4 drivers irritating.
