The GF actually laughed at my refusal to park in a disabled space the other week.
Driving to an out of hours pharmacy at a Boots on a massive retail park, I parked in the nearest non-disabled space instead of one of the empty disabled bay's right by the door.
In hindsight, parking in one of the disabled bays probably wouldn't have been a problem, as there were only three of us in the entire car park of about 400 spaces, of which about 20 are disabled bays. But it's just second nature now to avoid them like the plague. Unless of course i'm chauffeuring my mother around, as she has a blue badge, in which case I get some very interesting looks parking a ZS in a disabled bay.
