Driver is a health care professional who has disabled badge but also disabled parking permit for Bournemouth hospital. Driver always parks in disabled section of road. Driver had a couple of weeks off and arrived for night shift at 6:50pm (in dark) on 5/1/26. Driver parked in normal place. Driver finishes shift and finds parking ticket on screen. It is still dark. Driver drives round to car park office on site and complains. Staff in car park office say “that’s no longer a disabled area as we need it for deliveries. Driver says they didn’t know, officer say there’s nothing they can do. It’s now light so driver revisits area. Sees that a sack/bag has been put over sign. Driver could not see this in dark. Driver writes to Saba office at hospital, PALS dept & the hospital travel team. All reply that there is nothing they can do.

Is this legal and does the driver have a case that the sign couldn’t be seen in the dark
