AIBU to think it's ok for disabled to park in P&C parking spaces

[SparkyStar84]

After the fun with the last post, going from experience too, I wondered how many would support the notion of the buses legislation AND a disabled person parking in a P&C space where ever, if the disabled spaces are full.

Technically we have the right too with a badge.

I've had issues before where the person with me has parked in a P&C space, without DC present, parents have got quite ratty.

Pixel thank you for your advice. We are seeing the surgeon in a few weeks time so I'll ask for his help and with baby two due any day now I'm sure it won't be long before we see the health visitor for weight checks.

We have followed up this issue with the Welsh Government and I thought the reasons they gave us as to why my son wasn't eligible were contradictory and completely contrary to the equality act. Thankfully our local AM also thought the same and has told us that he wants to personally fight this, but goodness knows if change will happen by the time we need it to. Until then we'll have to rely on p&c spaces instead of a temporary use of disabled parking spaces.

CarolineMumsnet The op stated clearly on the other thread that she started that she was doing this It was started to be goady and for those of us who are tired and bored with 'educating' people because Mumsnet has come to expect it of us, it's not funny, interesting, entertaining or educational. Perhaps instead of passing along a message of peace and love you'd be kind enough to pass on a message of zero tolerance to goady and disablist threads such as these.

I really dont get why this thread is still here
Its a taat
Its goady as fuck, admitted by the op
Its disablist in places
It is surey to fuck not in the spirit of mn
Yet still here

This is ridiculous. Livia pretty much summed the thread up.

anyone who gives a disabled person shit for where they park is a cunt

Everyone has pretty much agreed that disability trumps p+c.

We park in the BB bay mostly, sometimes there are none available so we use P&C instead we have parked across two regular bays when there were no larger spaces available, in all cases we put the BB badges up.

I saw a letter in my local paper a few years ago where a woman was complaining she got fined for parking in the BB bay at Morrisons because all the P&C's were full. #

I forgot to mention in my previous post that my husband is a powerchair user, so although the regular bays are further away, it isn't a problem for us.

LucklessMonster You are an idiot. Countless posts with photos showing bad parking are available everywhere on the internet. Believe what you wish, keep ranting, and enjoy your anger. Sounds shit to be you frankly!

I'd rather be me than someone too thick to park a car properly.
