New Zealand citizens that have difficulty and suffer pain getting from a vehicle to their intended destination PAY for a Mobility Parking Permit that allows them to exclusively park near their destination. We often distressingly find able bodied people have illegally parked there. If reported to the police they say it is a private matter and do nothing even though fines are applicable. The offenders often are full of excuses and defensive or belligerent and sometimes downright threatening to people that are already frail. We need this "be kind" government to promote ACTIVE ENFORCEMENT of punitive fines for belligerent mobility parking offenders. One day you may be frail and have mobility issues due to accident, illness or just age. Don't regret not acting on this important issue now. Please sign and share this. Thank you.
I didnt officially appreciate how much of a deal it was until my mother was diagnosed with mnd.. what a necessicity it is to have that service. Winds me up when I frequently see teens parking to get an easy pizza or lazy arrogant people taking it for granted at our local shops!
