Being positive didn’t work

The rego plate might have read ‘BPOSTV” however the owner of the car who recently illegally parked in the new mobility parking space in Hunt Street found herself not so positive that she would get away with it.

Did she not realise that she was parking in a mobility parking space or did she think she was only going to be five minutes and that it didn’t matter anyway? Did she not see the yellow mobility parking sign painted on the road or the blue mobility parking sign next to it?

Maybe it would be a good idea to make these parking spaces more visible as suggested in a recent study in Auckland. or do some people just not care that they are stopping people with disabilities from getting on with their lives?

What do you think?
