All around Portlaoise you constantly see cars just popping into these spaces for 2 minutes which turns out to be 10 .. 15 minutes. These spaces are critical for people who struggle to get from the car to the shop. If you don't have a badge then PLEASE use another space and be grateful you are fit enough to do so.
Also the yellow boxes beside paths are there for a reason. Usually they highlight a ramp for wheelchairs or people with strollers. Just take 2 minutes to think how difficult it would be to navigate Portlaoise's roads and pathways in a wheelchair and then don't clog up their only access.
It just takes one person to be lazy for one minute to cause untold trouble for someone with a disability.
Please have respect and don't make your stupidity your disability :)
