So do I, abuse of disabled parking spaces is one of my absolute hates! Asda do enforce fines at a few of their stores and I hope all supermarkets follow suit. |

Tesco shoppers face £70 fine for using parent or disabled spaces: Crackdown will see staff given special smartphone app to record those breaking the rules |

I hope it comes to our Tesco. I take an old lady shopping every Wednesday and she has a blue badge, but the disabled spaces are often full because of people " popping" to the cash machines which are nearby |

We have had no problems at our Tesco, we may have been lucky. |

what annoys me more, is taxi drivers sitting in "pickup points" waiting for what appear to be random customers....... |

Hubby had a blue badge parking which we used correctly . What would annoy me was all and sundry who weren't neighbours would park for days outside our house and along the road so I couldn't get near to help him out of the car and into the house . |

It really bugs me .People go to cash machines & just park were they want .they would pull up next to the doors if they could .we have notices up a fine if you park on disable parking spaces ?? .don't they have CCT cameras to watch car parks ? or is it to much trouble to check .maybe that's the answer Barbra . |

This is good news. A few months ago, I asked at our local Tesco as to what happens if someone misuses a disabled space. The answer was 'nothing - we put their car reg on the loudspeaker, but they usually don't come forward because they know why we want them", Nuff said. |

Us militant cripples have ways of naming and shaming people who abuse disabled bays. |

Not all disabled people require a wheel chair. |

That's why I posted the comment about notes left asking about their wheelchair! |

Sadly some people are very ignorant about the definition of disability. But I suppose there is no cure for that. |

I have good days and bad days with my problems. On the good days I do not use my blue badge and park in a normal bay as a little walk does me some good and the bay is reserved(hopefully) for someone who needs are greater than mine. Bad days different matter. :-( |
