Abuse of special parking permits for people with disabilities has become so pervasive that on many downtown Toronto streets almost all vehicles display one, a CBC Toronto investigation has found.
Police say the problem is only getting worse.
Brian Moniz, operations supervisor for the Toronto Police Service's Parking Enforcement Unit, said police seized 823 misused #accessible permits in 2014. By 2016, that number had grown to 1,350, a jump of more than 60 per cent.
