Non disabled car parked diagonally across disabled parking bays, 17th September
Yesterday morning I saw (and noted the plate for) a black Mini parked in disabled bay without a badge on display. It was also parked diagonally. I myself do have a blue badge and came back from the shop to see them blocking the only spare disabled bay. The car park was entirely full at the time and people were even parked on the road outside the village centre but had anyone with a disability needed to park they would have been blocked by someone using a designated space.
