The Institute of Advanced Motoring (IAM) has delivered advice to blue badge holders on parking, that could aid people who are driving motorhomes.
Peter Rodger, chief examiner for IAM, laid out a number of tips to help blue badge users, hoping that this will help people see the benefit of the scheme.
Among the advice he gave was that users stay within the lines of parking bays to allow plenty of space, this is to ensure people have room to get wheelchairs out.
He also suggested that if it is the blue badge user who is being driven and parking spaces are in short supply, that they be dropped off at their destination so that the driver has fewer restrictions on where they can park.
Blue badges are recognised in 29 countries and give holders the same disability rights as citizens within these countries.
These can be useful for people with disabilities who are travelling with their motorhomes as they will not have to struggle as much with their vehicle when they are abroad.
