Secondly, if a disabled person needs to visit the hospital frequently due to their disability, and they don't have someone to drive them there every time they're due, wouldnt they find some other form of transport? Taxi, free door2door minibus service? etc. Unless of course they are fit enough to drive, to which they should be fit enough to pay a small parking free

If a person is registered disabled then they are likely to be a regular visitor to hospital, not just as a one off for a broken leg etc.
Why would they want to find another mode of transport if they have their own car?
