€150 fine issued to driver parked in disabled bay in Louth

A driver has been issued with a €150 fixed charge penalty notice after a vehicle was found parked in a disabled parking space in Drogheda.

The offence was highlighted by An Garda Síochána, which reminded motorists that parking in a disabled bay without displaying a valid disabled parking permit is an offence, regardless of whether it is day or night.

The vehicle was observed parked in a designated disabled space in Drogheda on a night last week.

Gardaí said a fixed charge penalty notice was issued, with a €150 fine on its way to the registered owner of the vehicle.
