REGARDING the complaint about misuse of the disabled parking facilities at the Asda store, in Grimshaw Park, Blackburn, I am a disabled badge holder and regularly use this car park and at times there can be as many as one third of the disabled spaces taken up by cars not displaying an Orange or Blue badge.
Some of these are, no doubt, genuine badge holders who have simply forgotten to display the badge, but others, non-badge holders, seem to use these spaces for their convenience, especially when it's raining.
The solution of crushing cars wrongly taking up disabled parking spots -- threatened recently by the Asda store in Sittingbourne, Kent -- sounds rather drastic, but will give your correspondent food for thought as to what he would like to see done about this problem.
HAROLD LONGWORTH, Newton Street, Darwen.
