Today I went to the gym. There are a small number of blue badge bays near the door. We followed a post office van onto the car park. Said van drove straight into a new empty blue badge bay. My husband sounded our horn and pointed out the badge to the driver when he got out of the van. The postman gestured towards an empty bay a little further away. My husband refused so the postman got back in his van and moved to the bay he’d pointed us towards. He RAN in dropped off the post, RAN out and drove away. Yes, he was only going to be parked there for two minutes, but nevertheless he shouldn’t have parked there.
Why do people think it’s ok to use these bays when not entitled to them on the basis that they won’t be there long. Not the first time we’ve had problems there. A few weeks ago it was builders working in the premises, but they weren’t only two minutes, they stayed all day!
Grr.
