As part of National Blue Badge Awareness Week, North Yorkshire Council has carried out a day of action to help protect parking spaces for those who need it most.
141 vehicles displaying Blue Badges in Harrogate and Scarborough were checked, with no instances of misuse identified.
Misuse of badges can limit access for those who rely on the scheme.
This includes using someone else’s badge when the holder is not present, using a badge after the holder has passed away, or displaying one that is expired, lost or stolen.
Offenders may face prosecution and fines of up to £1,000.
