Illegal use of a blue or red disabled parking placard hangtag will result in a $250 parking ticket under new legislation Mayor Greg Nickels announced on June 11.
The proposal aims to end the unlawful use of placards that denies disabled individuals accessible parking and hurts patrons’ access to local businesses and activities.
“Abuse of disabled parking placards has real consequences for the disabled, denying them accessible parking for their daily work, shopping and medical appointments,” Nickels said in a statement. “This proposal will give our officers more tools to ensure disabled drivers, residents and visitors can more easily park on our city’s streets.”
The Seattle Police Department recently reviewed disabled parking hangtags used citywide and uncovered significant problems. Abuses found were placards that were expired, issued to people since deceased, or reported “lost” to the Department of Licensing but still in use.
When contacted about possible misuse, 85 percent of drivers were found to be inappropriately using placards.
