The rules also apply to non-drivers travelling in any car as a passenger.
If you have a physical disability or health condition that affects your walking ability, or have a hidden illness such as dementia, autism or Parkinson's, you may be able to get a Blue Badge to help you park closer to the places you want to go. A Blue Badge holder travelling either as a driver or passenger can park for free in disabled parking bays and you may be exempt from other parking restrictions.
The Disabled Persons Regulations 2000 explains the circumstances for when the Blue Badge may be displayed while a vehicle is being driven in any part of the UK. Top Money Stories Today There are currently more than 235,700 Blue Badge holders living in Scotland and in many cases, people will automatically qualify for the £20 parking permit.
Transport Scotland also says that whenever possible, you should park in bays instead of parking on yellow lines.
