I remember one Sunday morning a few years ago, I looked out of my front window and for the only time since I moved into Mallard Place 26 years ago the car park was completely empty, there are I should think around car parking spaces for 18 cars, of which 3 were designated for the use of disabled drivers. The first car to pull on the car park was a young woman, she was about 19 or 20 years old, where did she park, in one of the designated disabled bays

That is lazy policing in my book, yeh should have asked "How" their excuse makes it legal.

Being aged 19 or 20 does mean she wasn't disabled.
I can't see how you can judge her unless you know her.
She may well have been on a waiting list for heart surgery for all you know.

Oh yes its mummy

The immitation bobbies ( P.C.S.O. s) have been up patrolling when the school was coming out , but they do not have the power of issuing tickets, which is what these inconsiderate parents need. All the police say is give us some registrations and we will send them a warning. I have never seen one booked.
