Valid Disabled Parking Permit / Plate Holder
Florida Statute §316.1964 grants holders of a disabled parking permit or specialty plate the right to park free of charge in any timed metered space and exempts them from time limits in non-metered restricted zones for up to 4 hours. A citation issued to a vehicle displaying a valid placard or plate is defective and must be dismissed.

Sample appeal wording
TO: [ISSUING AGENCY] RE: Citation No. [CITATION NUMBER] Under Florida Statute §316.1964, a vehicle displaying a valid disabled parking placard or license plate is exempt from parking meter charges and from time limits at non-metered restricted parking for up to four (4) hours. At the time of the citation the vehicle prominently displayed valid placard/plate # [PLACARD#], registered to [NAME], expiration [DATE]. A copy of the placard registration and a photograph of the placard hung in the vehicle on [DATE] are attached. The citation is therefore issued in error and must be dismissed under §316.1964(3), Fla. Stat. [NAME] / [DATE]
Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
