A current, valid state-issued disabled placard must be displayed on any vehicle parked in a disabled parking space on the campus.  Vehicles displaying disabled parking placards, whether permanent or temporary must also display valid UCF parking permits at all times while parked on the campus.

Disability parking spaces are located throughout the UCF campus; however, in the unlikely event that the vehicle operator is unable to find an available disabled parking space he or she may utilize any unreserved or otherwise unmarked parking space so long as the disabled placard is properly displayed.  

Parking with another person’s state-issued disabled placard is prohibited by Florida law and the placard may be confiscated.  

“No Parking" Areas
Safety precautions necessitate some "No Parking" areas on the UCF campus. These areas must remain clear to permit other vehicles, to include emergency, service, and maintenance vehicles, to maneuver safely through the area. The absence of “No Parking” signs does not always mean that parking is permitted in an area, however. An example would be parking alongside curbed areas inside paved parking lots.

Loading Zones
Loading Zones are located in areas where parking may be limited, yet in areas where many people may need access.

For short-term parking needs, most buildings have “Loading Zones” that allow parking for service vehicles only. Some posted signs indicate the amount of time permitted. Some Loading Zones on campus are signed with posted time limits to provide access for individuals who depend on these spaces to make timely deliveries. The time limits encourage high turnover in areas where high turnover is needed. Vehicle operators should always check for signs depicting posted time limits.

For deliveries, Loading Zones should be used for delivering heavy items only. Persons delivering small packages are encouraged to use parking meters or designated short-term parking areas. If metered spaces are used, all posted fees must be paid.

Loading Zones are also available for the immediate pick-up and drop-off of passengers, and to provide disabled persons a place to be picked up or dropped off safely. During these instances, the drivers of vehicles picking up or dropping off passengers MUST remain with the vehicle.

All Loading Zones are designated tow- away zones, and are enforced 24 hours per day.
