i doubt it will continue to work and the kit is probably expensive.

But plenty of people drive around with a blue badge in their car, but don't actually have the disabled person in the car with them.

There was lady who worked in our town centre a few months ago (who had a good job in a bank) who was using her mothers blue badge to park for free all day in the town centre (till she got caught and taken to court).

So just checking for the blue badge is not enough.

True but apart from having wardens greet every car and check, there's no way around that. Well: unless the disabled all get chipped !

It's a good idea. But I hope it won't mean loads of empty spaces going to waste.

they should just make it valid by disabling the person accordingly, simples!
