Nearly everybody if not everybody, disabled or not, car owner would love to pay a fee to have a parking space outside there house that no one else can use and while were at it lets buy the whole road and stop traffic going by past my house so making much more peaceful place to live.
So you see why we will never be able to have personal parking spaces outside your homes, disabled or not.
Not only that it does draw attention and resentment from neighbours and I see this for myself since having “DISABLED” painted across my drive a year ago and while the next-door neighbours respect the signage, delivery drivers, food delivery people etc take the view that even though the rest of the street is empty of cars with loads of free spaces to park, even if only for five minutes, they will park on top of the disabled sign and I assume they think “we pay our taxes and will park where we like and the disabled have no right to own a part of the road” and also think “what’s a disabled person going to do about it anyway”.
I’m fortunate to have a hardstanding in my front garden but agree its must be bad news for disabled folk who have no front gardens to park in.
