The Brisbane City Council has waived 172 parking fines issued to drivers with disability permits.
The Council is investigating its parking ticket technology after incorrectly issuing fines to drivers.
A disability permit allows drivers to park for free in metered parking bays for an unlimited time when the sign indicates 30 minutes or more. Drivers began receiving up to three tickets per day due to the flawed technology.
People with these permits were urged to contact the council regarding any issued fines as inclusion advocate, Geoff Trappett, said that it was important that these procedures did not unfairly target people with a disability.
