Answer:

The answer is in the explanation since it's a bit heavy.

Step-by-step explanation:

So before I answer this question what are disabled parking bays for? They're parking spaces that give enough room for the disabled person (whether in a wheelchair, crutches, or any other sort of tool to help them move) to get out of their car and go into the location.

Now, these parking spaces are not meant to be used up by able-bodied people (as they do not need the room). When able-bodied people take these spots, people who depend on these spots to be opened are left without anywhere to park, as they cannot safely get out of their car without the extra room.

You can see this anywhere, from motor homes taking up multiple of these spaces or an able-bodied person taking the spot since they have a marker, even though they can walk fine.

I hope this was clear enough, it's a tricky question. Especially without answer choices. xx
