We’ve all thought about parking in one of these spots without a pram — and some of us have. But can you actually get in trouble for it?
So, the news that a mother has asked the question, “who are those parks really for?” on social media has finally assuaged my guilt.
”Are these bays just for parents that can walk or just for prams only for like kids like newborn or that can’t walk because 90 per cent of parents that park here there kids can walk and don’t have prams?” she posted to Facebook.My daughter is nine now and I wouldn’t dream of parking in one of those spaces. But truly, does anyone really care if there’s an actual pram if the kids are little? What if you HAVE a pram in the boot but don’t get it out at the shops.
“I use them with my toddler sometimes as the spaces are bigger and you need to open the door wider to get them out of the car seats,” one woman said.“Anyone can park there. Literally anyone! It’s a recommendation not a law,” another parent commented.
