Disable parking bays and blue badges.

I’m a blue badge holder. Limited mobility and can only walk short distances.
If someone was parked in a disabled bay, without displaying a blue badge, would you ask them to move their car?

Regularly at school drop off and pick up there are cars parked in the 2 disabled bays, with no badges. Often parents in the car waiting for pick up.

There is other parking along the street, it gets pretty busy, and a supermarket less than 5 minutes walk away with a massive, free, car park
.
I am a bit fed up of people parking in disabled bays making them inaccessible for blue badge holders.

YABU - don’t ask them to move their car.
YANBU- yes ask them to move the car. Cheeky f@@kers

  1. Ask the school to remind parents that the disabled spaces are for the disabled carers/children.
  1. Can you park blocking them if necessary?

For some reason, normally sensible people seem to lose their marbles around school parking.
