Disabled blue badge

Does any one know if you can get a blue badge if you drive when the rules come into force on 30th of August 

Or is it only if you dont drive 

Parents
  • The new criteria will extend eligibility to people who:

    • cannot undertake a journey without there being a risk of serious harm to their health or safety or that of any other person (such as young children with autism)
    • cannot undertake a journey without it causing them very considerable psychological distress
    • have very considerable difficulty when walking (both the physical act and experience of walking)

    So you will need to apply and explain why you fit one of the criteria and then it's up to them. But you can legally apply

  • What comes under psychological distress do any of these stress,  anxiety, depression?
