Who is eligible?
Please visit rms.nsw.gov.au for more information on how to apply.
To be eligible for a MPS permit, a person must be unable to
walk because of permanent or temporary loss of the use of one
or both legs or other permanent medical or physical condition, or
whose physical condition is detrimentally affected as a result of
walking 100 metres, or who requires the use of crutches, a
walking frame, callipers, scooter, wheelchair, or other similar
mobility aid. Permits are also available to people who meet the
permanently blind criteria defined
http://www.rms.nsw.gov.au/
roads/using-roads/mobility-parking/index.html
. Applicants that
do not meet the eligibility criteria will not be issued a permit.
You or your representative must fill in the application form before
seeing your medical doctor. The medical information in this
application will be used for the administration of the MPS and
where appropriate for the Driver Licensing Scheme. Your doctor
must complete Section 2 of the MPS form (Medical Certificate)
unless you are applying for a replacement MPS permit or you
have a clinically recognisable disability on Roads and Maritime
Services records. Roads and Maritime has a responsibility to
ensure that all NSW licence holders are medically fit to drive. If
you hold a driver licence and Roads and Maritime needs to be
notified of any medical condition, you will need to have your
doctor complete Section 3 (Medical Report) of this application.
The medical information will be used to verify your medical fitness
to drive. In the event that any medical practitioner recommends
restrictions in respect of your driver licence or certifies that you
are medically unfit to drive, this may result in restrictions being
placed on your driver licence or the suspension of your driver
licence. Section 3 is not required to be completed if the
application is for a temporary permit issued for the first time or
where a previously held temporary permit has already expired.

holder. These security features help prevent possible misuse of
cards. From August 2018 you may have the option of using an
existing valid photo stored in the Roads and Maritime system

A MPS permit is issued subject to the following conditions and
heavy penalties may apply for failing to adhere to these
conditions:
Conditions of Use
Parking concessions
The MPS permit entitles you to park in spaces marked with a
symbol for people with disabilities. The permit also provides
parking concessions in other spaces:
Where parking is limited by a sign to more than 30 minutes,
the vehicle can park for an unlimited time.
Where parking is limited by a sign to less than 30 minutes, the
vehicle can park for a maximum of 30 minutes.
Where parking is limited by a sign to 30 minutes, the vehicle
can park for 2 hours.
The parking concessions apply when the MPS permit is displayed
on the vehicle and it is being used to transport the individual to
whom the permit is issued. Parking concessions available under
the MPS are only valid of on-street or council operated car parks.
Car parking areas operating behind boom gates are privately
operated and no concessions are afforded in these areas. To park
in a designated disability parking space in a private car park, you
must display your valid MPS permit and pay any applicable fees
required.
When do the concessions apply?
A MPS permit becomes invalid if it expires, is revoked by Roads
and Maritime or the permit holder is deceased. Display of a MPS
permit that is invalid can result in a heavy fine being issued.
Invalid permits should be posted to Roads and Maritime, Team
Leader Drives Assurance, PO Box 3035, Parramatta NSW 2124.
Invalid MPS permits
At a 'No Parking' sign you may park up to 5 minutes, and the
driver must remain within the vehicle or within 3 metres of the
vehicle to drop off or pick up passengers or goods.
If your medical condition improves and you no longer require the
use of your MPS permit, you are required to return your MPS
permit to your nearest registry, Service Centre or post it to Roads
and Maritime, Team Leader Drives Assurance, PO Box 3035,
Parramatta NSW 2124.
Changes in your Medical Condition
From September 2010, Mobility Parking Scheme (MPS) permits
must be displayed in an Australian Disability Parking permit, as
provided to you by Roads and Maritime. As a courtesy, Roads
and Maritime can supply a suction cup to attach the permit to the
vehicle window. You are not required to use this device and may
use other methods that do not obscure the permit details or the
driver's vision.
If you choose to use the suction cup, the manufacturer advises
that the suction cup's effectiveness is improved when used on a
clean windscreen. Use of an alcohol wipe is recommended as
some window cleaners may leave a residue.
Displaying your permit
a) The permit must be inserted and displayed in the plastic
sleeve on the Australian Disability Parking permit provided to
you by Roads and Maritime.
b) The permit must only be displayed when the vehicle is being
used to transport the individual to whom the permit was
issued. It must not be used to visit or run errands for an
eligible person when that person is not being transported in
the vehicle.
c) The permit should be displayed unobscured on the left hand
(passenger) side of the vehicle on either the vehicle's
windscreen, or on any window. If this is not practicable, it
should be placed in an area where the whole of the permit
may be viewed from outside the vehicle. The sides marked
'THIS SIDE UP' or 'DISPLAY THIS SIDE' must face out. The
permit may be attached to the vehicle by any method that
does not obscure any of the permit details or the vision of the
driver when the vehicle is in motion.
d) Parking concessions available under the MPS are only valid
at on-street or council operated car parks. To park in a
designated disability parking space in a private car park, you
must display your valid MPS permit and pay any applicable
fees required.
e) The permit is valid until the date of expiry, unless it is revoked.
f) The permit can no longer be used once it expires. It must be
renewed and a current permit displayed for any disability
parking concessions.
g) The permit must be returned to our registry or a Service
Centre on expiry, if it is revoked by Roads and Maritime or as
soon as its use is no longer required eg. the person no longer
suffers from the disability that made them eligible for the
permit.
h) The permit must not be reproduced, copied, defaced, altered
or destroyed.
i) The permit is not valid if reproduced, copied, defaced or
otherwise altered or where one or more of the details on the
permit (e.g. card number or expiry date) are illegible.
j) If the permit is used in another State or Territory, it may be
used in accordance with their prevailing parking concessions.
k) The permit may be confiscated by an authorised officer and/or
revoked by Roads and Maritime for misuse or breach of any of
these Conditions of Use.
All other parking rules apply.
Failure to comply with these conditions can constitute an offence
under the Road Transport (General) Regulation 2013 and you can
be fined up to $2,200.00.
Penalties
l) The permit is subject to other such conditions that may be
imposed by Roads and Maritime.
When applying for a replacement MPS permit, you must indicate
the reason in the relevant area on page 2 of this form. If you are
unable to return the permit you are replacing, you must complete
the declaration at Question 6.
Once a replacement MPS permit is issued, the previous MPS
permit is revoked and can no longer be displayed in a vehicle.
Displaying a revoked MPS permit can result in a heavy fine being
issued. If your old MPS permit is found, you must post it to Roads
and Maritime, Team Leader Drives Assurance, PO Box 3035,
Parramatta NSW 2124 as soon as possible.
Replacement MPS permits
Abuse of the MPS can be reported by phoning 1300 884 899 or
emailing Customer_Service_Centre@rms.nsw.gov.au.
Hotline
When parking in metered, coupon or ticket parking areas
operated by councils, no charge is applied. Charges may
apply in privately operated parking areas.
