‘Triple P’ couple spotted in disabled bays

Can someone please tell me how I can get a “Blue wheelchair sticker” to place on the dashboard of my car? Reason being I also want to ‘hop’ out of my vehicle and “run” into Spar to purchase my groceries because, I just hate having to ‘walk’ so far from the parking bays.

For the fifth time now I have caught the same couple driving a grey KIA Sorenta using the paraplegic parking bays. No walking sticks, no crutches or walkers in sight. They just calmly walk about with no problems at all. That’s why I call them the “Triple P Couple”: Paraplegic – Parking – Pinchers.

Dictionary definition – to be paraplegic, is to be unable to use the lower half of your body, people with this disability are called ‘paraplegics’ which is a medical term for crippled / disabled.

Within the last 18 months my husband had a hip replacement twice, and both knees replaced. In all that time he never once used the paraplegic parking. He preferred to walk, especially to get the exercise.

I strongly recommend that these ‘Blue’ wheelchair stickers be tossed and that a “genuine paraplegic person” be given a letter or something from their doctor which in turn must be regularly up-dated, to place on their dashboards so that it can be read and authorised by the centre’s security.
