A taxi driver was slapped with a parking ticket whilst helping a blind passenger into a pharmacy.
Gary Fox was charged £70 after parking in a disabled parking space in Middleton on Tuesday.
The 60-year-old, who has been a cab driver for 15 years, said he was away from the car ‘for two or three minutes at the most’ as he helped his regular customer Lenny Nicholson to get a prescription.
He was then ‘shocked’ to see a traffic warden slapping a parking ticket onto his screen as he did not have a blue badge.
His appeals against the fine have all been unsuccessful.
