Rejected petition Disabled parking badge for dementia
Rejected on
People with dementia often have no road sense and will wander into traffic making it difficult for their carers to keep them safe. Mobility also deteriorates as the condition progresses. If their carers could park close to their destination this would reduce the danger. They should qualify for disabled parking badges.
