It involves collecting various types of information and documentation in order to qualify for one. If you're looking for further guidance on the application process, head over to PARKINGCUPID.COM blog center! Understanding how disability parking permits work and how they should be used is essential in ensuring everyone has equal access to parking. If you've clicked on this video, you may want to gain a better understanding of DPPs, places, and regulations. I'm here to provide answers to the most common questions about driving with a disability parking permit so confusion can be lessened. 1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,200 Hey there! So if you've clicked on this video, you may be looking for a better 2 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:11,720 understanding of disability parking permits or DPPs. Places and regulations 3 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,440 and other information. Well, I'm here to help answer some of the most common 4 00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:21,200 questions about driving with the disability parking permit in order to 5 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:29,120 lessen some of your confusion. So DPP parking permits are the first step to 6 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,240 enabling accessible parking, but they can also be a source of confusion for a 7 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,120 lot of people. Understanding how these permits work and also how they should be 8 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:44,560 used is a really important part of making sure that everyone has equal access 9 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:51,840 to parking. Obtaining a disability parking permit DPP isn't as easy as some 10 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:58,040 people think. In fact, applying for one is quite involved and requires a certain 11 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:05,200 amount of information and documentation in order to be successful. For more 12 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:09,800 information on the process of receiving the DPP, you can find further 13 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:16,960 information at parkingcupid.com blog center. Parkingcupid.com has everything 14 00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:22,160 covered that you're going to need and when it comes to DPPs, it's important to do 15 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,520 your research and understand the necessary details in order to make sure 16 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:31,520 that you are utilizing it properly because depending on where you are 17 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:37,080 located, the rules may differ so it's really important to familiarize yourself 18 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:43,320 with what applies in your specific area. Once you have a better understanding of 19 00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:47,520 the regulations, you can more confidently use your permissions 20 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:54,040 appropriately. A disability parking permit or DPP is part of the disability 21 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:59,960 parking scheme which provides uniform eligibility criteria and minimum 22 00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:06,360 parking discounts across states and this scheme helps to remove any barriers 23 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:11,720 faced by permit holders when traveling between different states. The 24 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:17,760 implementation and management of the scheme is overseen by state government 25 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:23,160 and so for more information regarding the application process, cost, eligibility 26 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:28,640 and usage requirements for permits in your state, please contact the relevant 27 00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:33,800 government body. They'll be able to answer any questions you may have about 28 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:41,720 obtaining the permit. So once you get your permit, permit holders can park in 29 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:47,680 areas designated for them displaying the international symbol of access and when 30 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:54,160 a sign or a meter displays a certain time limit in public parking areas, you will 31 00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:00,840 abide by that. However, permits can only be used while the permit holder is being 32 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:06,520 transported by the vehicle so keep that in mind. The number and expiration date 33 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:12,240 of the permit must be clearly visible from the outside of the vehicle. So who is 34 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:17,600 eligible for a disability parking permit? Are you qualified to receive a federal 35 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:24,080 DPP? According to various disability parking schemes, not everyone is entitled 36 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:29,760 to one. To be eligible for this permit, you must meet certain criteria and the 37 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:36,520 list is long, too long to give you here so if you'd like to look through all of 38 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:42,760 that information, the full blog post with all relative criteria and more is 39 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:48,480 available for you at parkingcupid.com in the blog post and I'm going to add that 40 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:53,640 link in the description below for you so you can just click the link and you 41 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:59,320 will be taken straight to the blog post. So now let's take a quick look into how 42 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:05,320 to apply for your DPP. The DPP has evolved significantly since it was first 43 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:12,080 introduced with three major versions now available. These are the individual, the 44 00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:18,040 temporary and the organizational permits replacing the more than 100 different 45 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:23,760 types of permits that were previously in use. Obtaining a disability parking 46 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:28,880 permit or DPP has become more difficult in recent years due to the increased 47 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:34,760 uniformity of eligibility requirements across the country and in order to 48 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:41,920 successfully obtain a DPP, many barriers must be overcome and this just makes it 49 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:47,840 particularly challenging for those who don't actually need one. If you think 50 00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:53,840 you are eligible for a disability parking permit, how can you obtain one? Well 51 00:04:53,840 --> 00:04:59,360 the procedure may differ depending on what state or region you reside in and 52 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:04,840 once again you'll find everything you need to know by visiting parkingcupid.com 53 00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:10,680 and reading the full blog post which again, friendly reminder, I've provided the 54 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:16,720 link to that in the description below. So I hope this helps you out some and 55 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:23,160 remember parkingcupid.com has all your information. They have tips and tricks 56 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:29,280 for securing convenient and cost-effective parking either at home or 57 00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:35,480 while traveling.
