| Subject: Ozschwitz: Crackdown on disability parking cheats Sat Jun 21, 2008 8:56 pm | |
| PARKING officers will be given new powers to confiscate disability parking cards immediately from cheats who abuse the system.
In the crackdown, to be announced by Roads Minister Eric Roozendaal, motorists not entitled to the cards will face tough sanctions, including a "three strikes and you're out" policy.
And doctors will be reminded of their obligation to ensure they recommend only eligible people for the Mobility Parking Scheme.
Mr Roozendaal said the community was fed up with people taking illegal advantage of the scheme.
Cardholders can park in disabled parking zones and leave vehicles in time-restricted spots for double the posted time. In some cases, they can stay all day without being fined.
"The scheme is there to make life easier for people with disabilities, not for parking cheats who don't have a conscience," Mr Roozendaal said. "Parking cheats need to get the message that we will not tolerate the abuse of a legitimate and important scheme for helping people with disabilities."
