Depends on the site.  We had a new development of flats next to us, we said they woudl create a parking problem but the developers said they would provide more than enough and even let us park there.  Did they f.  There are enough spaces if they were all available but now they have numbered them, new flat residents with two cars only get one space and park their second car in the road we have parked in for 20 years, completely filling it up.  Meanwhile there are always empty spaces in their numbered  car park.

Guys just read the signs when you enter a private land site.... A lot of sites only issue if they have too I.E. landlord get complaints from tennants of abuse of P/T and disablity bays, i saw a guy who parked up yesterday in a Disabilty bay with no badge so all i did was ask him do you have a blue badge?? he says no.. so i then ask him to park elsewhere on site.. you get the "there`s no spaces!!!" to which i reply theres always a space sir... Now the only reason he`s parked there is go to the gym, dunno why it is but it always seems to be gym members who do this....anyways  he moves his car and i get the "you f***king jobs worth!!!" i dont care i really dont..... So i suppose what i`m saying is you have a brain in your head you have eyes and ears and hopefully you have intelligance as well.. So read the signs and obey the site rules its simple and hopefully will result in no tickets... Park outside of the rules then take reponsibilty for your actions....

Obviously one of the 10% of selfish numpties on the road, where they know, just positively know, they are the most important person in the world, so normal rules only apply to everybody else. Personally I can't stand the attitude of fit people that park in disabled bays and deprive them from members of society that we should all go out of our way to help the best we can.

It used to be 2 parking bays per person in the planning rules, but 2 jags changed this as part of the war on motorists, by reducing it to a maximum of one.

My daughter has the same problem where she lives on a new development with allocated parking, where there are no other parking places within about a mile of where she lives. Fortunately, one of the residents does not have a car and lets her partner park his van there. It is a nightmare trying to park as a visitor.

A friend of mine is paraplegic and has been in a wheelchair for 12 years.  These able bodied, ignorant, arrogant arseholes who park in disabled bays make his life even more difficult.  >:( However he's the sort of bloke who dosn't take any shit from anyone and positively enjoys 'aving a go at idiots like this!!  ;D  He's got very good at making these sort of people squirm and it can be quite entertaining!  :y
