Came back to car earlier today to find the above... and yes I had my lovely blue disabled permit displayed boldly in the middle of my dashboard ..directly beneath where my parking fine was placed beneath one of the wipers........


I have to bring my special blue permit to an office to prove I am disabled to get it squashed..
...perhaps the fact that am in a wheelchair would be a clue...dya think??

Anybody else ever get one of these?? Am having a good laugh about it now...




...and yes I am in Ireland....more Irish jokes....:-)

There are some frigging idiots in this world aren't there?
Try and run over a few feet and do a few shins with your footrest when you produce your badge. It might make you feel a bit better. :cheers:

What I enjoy doing is, get the authorities to spend as much money as possible before I put them out of their misery
Even they have accountants and budgets

Can't get them to ticket ANYBODY over disabled spots, here. At least they are trying to do the right thing, there.

In this sort of thing,, I would rather see them err this way than write none at all,,,, even tho it really is a pain in the a$$.

I'm with you edlee at least there is someone out there trying to enforce theses laws... even if it is the village idiot... it's more than whats done around here. Dolphin I think it should be an easy ticket to have dismissed.

Let me tell you a (UK) story

I was illeagaly ticketed and exhousted all means of appeal as beurocrats are mindless idiots that say pay - pay - pay - and continualy issue threats
So it went to a goverment designated appeals tribunal
Where the council involved did not present 1 piece of evIdence
Case dismissed

Thats how it's been all through my disabled life where AB's make laws for us - that exclude us

Maybe you would like my post topic Cure Rhetoric & Societal Acceptance
It was inspired by precisely that issue!
And, how about taking away their claim to being more able -- call them non-disabled, they are not more able than you :ohmy: I'd rely on your abilities any day over theirs!
