No i think you will get clamped. Even if yo can park there legaly, if it doesnt say so on the signes then you will get clamped, the clampers would have a right old laugh at clamping a disabled person, they are like that. Aparentley you can park on double yellows if you car is not an obstruction to any over vehiches, as long as theres room for fire engines and buses to get by.

You do not say which country you are in.
In the UK, it is possible that you could still be clamped in a private area, although the law is being tightened to restrict the activities of unscrupulous clamoing companies.
If you are clamped, call the police if it seems that the clamping is unlawful.
If you are unlawfully clamped, you would be entitled to claim all direct and consequential losses and expenses from the person or company responsible the unlawful clamping. Issue proceedings in the Small Claims Court. Take clear photographs of the location of your vehicle.

The general rule is that a vehicle correctly displaying a valid blue badge should not be clamped. However, violations may be reported to the authority which issued your badge - 3 strikes and you're out - badge taken away. Take care.

Clamping is when these evil people put a big metal device on the wheel of your car so that you cant drive away...

If you park on double red lines or 3 yellow lines (normally going up the kerb) then yes, if not you won't be unless you parked overnight or for a long period of time.

What is "clamping?"

They have handicapped spaces everywhere, usually empty. That placard (badge) you have doesn't give you the right to park ANYWHERE YOU WANT. Follow the laws.

I don't think so, unless your parking on double red lines.
