Misuse of a Blue Badge

It is your responsibility to use your Blue Badge according to the guidelines. If you misuse your Blue Badge, you risk a £1,000 fine, and the badge will be taken away from you.

You must not:

• allow someone else to use your blue badge
• use a fake or altered blue badge  
• use dishonesty or deception to get a blue badge
• use a cancelled badge while your vehicle is being driven or is parked
• use a badge that should have been returned while your vehicle is being driven or is parked

Go to The Blue Badge scheme: rights and responsibilities in England - GOV.UK for more guidance on using your Blue Badge.
