how do you tell if a person is disabled or not there are different forms of disability you shouldn't jump to conclusions and make fun of people |

| Quote ="Leigh24.7"I pay in my lottery collection each Friday late afternoon after work. As there are never any cars in the disabled spots (sometimes may be the odd one buying tickets / paying in lottery) I park in one opposite the office. I am there for 1 minute only so NO - I do not want to walk 50 yards each way to do that little job. I just want to drop off the cash and get home for my tea.
And before you critisize me for being lazy, may I let you know that I walk most days per week - usually about 1 1/2 hours min. - for pleasure / fitness so 50 yards is not a problem.'"
It must save you all of one minuite of your time. If I was the warden I would camp out waiting for people just like you. It's a rule why do you have to break it? |

You are typical of what's wrong with this country these days - NO BLUDDY COMMON SENSE!
I am doing a job for my club and cannot see why I cannot drop off their money close to the office when none of the 30+ spaces are ever used at that time of day. I would NOT do this at ASDA or a town centre car park by the way neither would I do it if I was going inside the building for more than a couple of minutes.
TV BOY have you lived a squeaky clean life - never done 31 mph in a 30 zone etc?  |

Yes I have and if I get caught I would happily pay the fine. Also you never said that you would be there on club business but that still doesn't change my stance. Dont park where are not supposed to be.

Thanks matey, and you're right - I wouldn't park anywhere that had even a slight chance of being required by a disabled person. As I said - just common sense, that's all. |

I,ll take your bet Peawapp. i was ticketed at the store for indiscriminate use of disabled person parking bay.. the most annoying part was my only crime was to display my Wigan Council issued blue badge upside down.. needless to say i appealed and the ticket was recinded. No apology needed peawapp.  |

I agree with you but disabled parking spaces should be for people who seriously struggle to walk long distances, not someone who's had a slight heart murmur and plays golf 3 times a week like some loafing s I know.
Also, people with disabled badges should be booked when parking in parent with child spaces instead on monopolising the system. |

When can I whinge about non-working folk clogging up supermarkets and the like at weekend, instead of getting their stuff done when the rest of the population are at work?

| Quote ="mr. chairman"SENT ON BEHALF OF SHAUN CURRIE, SAFETY OFFICER
Dear Partner,
The continuing development of the Leigh Sports Village has seen an increase in the number of visitors to the many facilities that are on offer. This increase has resulted in greater demand for parking close to the facility being visited, which has resulted in an abuse of the disabled parking bays, the drop-off and pick-up areas, bus lay-bys and the turning circle at the end of Sale Way.
LSV Co have received a number of complaints relating to indiscriminate parking and, having investigated these complaints, have become concerned about the increased risks to the safety of visitors and the restricted access to emergency service vehicles caused by parking in non-designated areas. In addition, the LSV Co are committed to providing facilities for disabled visitors and will not tolerate parking in designated disabled parking bays by non-disabled persons. This practice is offensive and demonstrates a blatant disregard for the Disability Discrimination Act.
The LSV Co has worked in partnership with yourselves to resolve this issue by politely requesting that visitors comply with site parking rules. Fortunately, the majority of visitors are compliant but there remains a minority who continue to abuse the rules. Therefore, the LSV Co have found it necessary, in the interests of safety and respect for disability, to secure the services of a private ticketing company to enforce the parking rules across the site.
It is our intention to implement this process from 1st October 2009 and the required Securities Industries Act approved signs will be erected at appropriate locations to warn visitors of the consequences of parking in contravention of site rules and we ask that you put up notices at your respective facilities advising your customers of the implementation date and the requirement to park in the designated areas and, when necessary, to display disabled badges.
Many thanks for your anticipated co-operation.
Shaun Currie
Safety Officer

If you don't park in disables spaces at Asda then you probably won't park in disabled spaces in LSV. What's the problem!!!!! Disabled spaces are for the disabled (no matter how many). |

7pm Sunday, Asda car park. There's nowt on the car park apart from a few staff cars packing the shelves.
You're nipping to the cash machine, and it's bouncing down.
Who wouldn't park in the nearest spot?

I probably would as well. Just the the same as double yellow at the cash machine, but I still wouldn't use disabled space for any length of time. |

Its fairly similar, but we use Section 38 of the Highways Act. A road has to be built to an adoptable standard (finished!!) before the council take it on a 12 month maintenance period. When this is complete, and any defects repaired, the council adopt it and it becomes public highway.
So, when Ledgard Avenue gets adopted the East lot can all park on it and unless the Council put up resident only restrictions or yellow lines there is nowt anyone can do about it. But I didnt tell you that.
