    It could well have been moved there by boisterous kiddies. If the wind was blowing it may have been blown there or in a case I saw recently a person in a wheelchair who had just parked in one spot, removed a traffic cone and placed it in the adjoining parking spot to "reserve" it for her friend who was coming to meet her.

    A little calm word with the shop owner would probably have sorted the problem out with no angst unless he/she was a complete a'hole in which case then go to town on them.
    Yep considered all that . I had tried to also post this in the old thread started ages ago same problem posting to old threads Can't ATM.

    I could just see Sue pulling the wheelchair out just so I can go in have a quiet word and then ask her to put the chair back in the car again I am sure she would love doing that.

    Today a visit to a nursing home to see MiL only disabled parking space taken by a tradie plenty others he could have parked in sorry no photo of that one. Place is in full reno with utes parked everywhere

    On way home we usually stop for a Subway near Roselands on Canterbury Rd now this is a beauty photo taken.

    I think some people may have to have look close at that pic before they judge the shop owner.

    As like most shopping centres the shop owner may rent or Own the shop but the CAR PARK fulls under the centre management.

    It is illegal to block any exit of a shop with in 3 or 5 meters, the number is around that mark
    That's fire exits as well as entrants.

    I"say not even the emergency officers can block the entrance

    If you stop and look at the pic the yellow lines are not marked as a car park as there is no markings to say we're the park stops like the park on the left and right.

    Car parks are painted in white lines.
    Yellow lines 99% of the time mean no parking.

    I"d take a shot in the dark and say that the mobility symbol was painted there by mistake and maybe know ones pick it up?

    I can't see why a call to the centre management was not made to ask about the parking spot instead of going the poor shop and taken a pic and placing it here.

    As for the nursing home
    like a lot of worksites when work is being done on a large size the worksite grounds and all
    or part of depending were the work is being done. Can become No parking.

    In most cases the public is not allowed to park on or with in a distance of were the work is being done as it becomes a OH&S issue.

    I only say this as I know of one nursing home and a hospital were this is a problem
    at the moment.
    DANGER!!!!
    I'm Dyslexic Spelling may offend!!!!!

    No centre management here Dave just 3 outlets the Gym Subway and something else so would be a rental situation me thinks. The council has to pass all Disabled Parking sites so I guess they would know the law well enough.

    If the distances your quoting are correct that would be brilliant as then no entrance to any door way would be hampered for all who use them.

    As for construction at the nursing home it was all happening 3 floors up from the car park.
