If it is correct, it just shows what a racket these restrictions are. By the way, it would not surprise me if it is correct. Have to get me a blue badge. Or does it mean that the vehicle has to be ‘adapted ‘ for a disability? My guess is the later.
No, you must have the exemption from road tax by the DWP that would be included if you have a mobility problem and claim the PIP award for that mobility, the blue badge is immaterial.
Exemption from road tax because the car is now registered as disabled will give free access or passage through any low emission zones.
