Living In The City And Carspots

[someonestolecc]

Just recently moved to the city and didn't know not every address is eligible for the parking scheme.

In my area there are plenty of empty spots and am wondering if anyone here has applied in a special way and been approved or what other options I have other than renting a car spot?

Thanks... :\

Dude; the cheapest and best way of getting a car spot in the city is to rent one!!! I've seen them for as low as $40 a week (full lockup security)... shop around, you'd be surprised how many people in an apartment block don't own cars.

I actually have a bad lower back and to a lesser extent foot- both which might fit me into the eligibility of the Mobility Parking Scheme - which means you can park over the metered time.

I just don't know of a doctor who would sign it for me, feels a bit ridiculous asking for a parking permit for a bum knee - because I actually would never use the para blue parking spots EVER, there are much worse off people.

On the other hand if I fit into the guidelines and it means I can get a sticker that'll let me park out the front of my house I don't see the harm.

Does anyone know of doctors who do this sort of stuff? Or is any doctor ok?

If you can get an MPS, you can park for up to 2hrs in a 30min zone, and all day in any spot rated over an hour. And you don't have to pay for metered parking, which will save you a hell of a lot of money.
