Full list of Blue Badge parking rules for people travelling in a vehicle as a driver or passenger. People with a disability or a physical health condition that affects their ability to walk, or have a hidden illness such as dementia, autism or Parkinson's, may be eligible for a Blue Badge to help them park closer to the places they want to go. A Blue Badge holder travelling either as a driver or passenger, can park for free in disabled parking bays and may also be exempt from other parking restrictions.

The Blue Badge enables a vehicle to park in many places where other motorists cannot, such as on-street parking meter spaces, on-street pay-and-display spaces, disabled person’s parking spaces and over single or double yellow lines. Just be aware that Transport Scotland recommends that Blue Badge holders park in bays instead of over yellow lines where possible. However, there are also more than ten places where permit holders cannot park, at any time of day or night - or they could risk incurring a fine or penalty.

Remember to display the badge correctly at all times - guidance for people in Scotland explains that when you are parking and want to use the badge, you must place it on top of the dashboard, where it can be clearly read through the front windscreen. The front of the badge should face upwards and the photo side should not be visible through the windscreen. There are highlighted indicators on either side to help you remember which way it should be placed.
