What should be done about misuse of disabled parking?

Reporter Marlborough Express

Disabled drivers pay a substantial amount for permits giving them the convenience of designated parking spots, but are often frustrated to find these spots occupied by vehicles not in possession of the required permit. How do you think this should be controlled? Do you take any action when you see disabled parking spots being used illegally? Are you a disabled driver frustrated with finding suitable parking?
