I’ve heard people say, “You can park anywhere for 10 minutes with a disabled badge.”
That is false. It’s a myth—like the one about goldfish having three-second memories.
You might get away with it if you leave your hazard lights on and look super apologetic.
But the law doesn’t care about your puppy-dog eyes. So don’t rely on this “rule” unless you’re feeling lucky—and have a spare £70 for a fine.
