Mobility parking

David from Rangiora

My wife has a disability.
It astonishes and concerns me the number of people who illegally park in a disabled parking lot without displaying a disability card.
I realise that there is a fine of $150 for parking on a council park (if caught) but no control or penalty for private disability parks such as Supermarket and Gym parking lots.
This means that disabled people have to park further away and walk to their destination using a walker or other support. This happened at the gym yesterday, where a disabled person had to walk a long way to get to the building due to inconsiderate (illegal) parking.
What do you think?
