Safe Speed Forums

Meanwhile over int the "MEN - Clarissa Satchell reports that Manchester is clamping down on bogus disabled badge holders. The council believes that at least 170 people per day use forged badges which cost £40 if you know where to obtain one...

These cheats park fro free and deprive the genuine holder of their space.

Local office workers in Byrom Street were under surveillance as they parked and came out of work to find their cars impounded...It seems they can check on a register these days....

The council is concerned over the scale of the fraud and plan to tow away cars and prosecute fro fraud in future.

The "MEN" comments on page 8 that fines should be high enough to deter.

No they don't. It costs them £40. And they still run the risk of being caught.

There are much cheaper ways of avoiding parking charges. I suspect the bit about forged badges is a bit of spicing up the story.

Most disabled badge abuse is people using a relative's badge without the relative being present.
