Even if you’re parked legally, you cannot block driveways, bus stops, or pedestrian crossings. The Blue Badge doesn’t give you a force field. If you park in front of a fire hydrant, the fire department will not hold a meeting to discuss your feelings—they’ll just hose down your car.
And remember: the badge is for the disabled person, not the driver. So if your able-bodied cousin is driving you to the store and you’re in the passenger seat, you still need to follow the rules. The badge doesn’t have eyes, but the warden does.
So go forth, badge-wielder, and park with confidence on that single yellow line. Check the sign, set a timer, display your badge like a prized artifact, and for the love of all that is kerb-adjacent, don’t get cocky. The warden is always watching. Probably from a bush. Eating a scone.
