Disabled Parking Rules in New YorkDo I have to pay meter fees when displaying a disability plate or disability placard in New York?
When you use the license plates or parking permit for people with disabilities, you are NOT exempt from parking regulations or fees. A metered parking waiver is available to certain drivers with severe disabilities. This waiver allows the holder to park in a metered parking space without putting payment into the meter. The waiver will only be issued to people whose severe disability makes it extremely difficult to put payment into a parking meter.
