Queenslanders who park in disabled car spaces could soon find themselves slapped with a demerit point penalty as well as cash fine.

The state government is currently considering stronger consequences for drivers who use the spaces without the required permit, the Courier Mail reports .

The news comes amid the report about 140 drivers are hit with fines a month for using the specifically designated parking spots.

Transport Minister Mark Bailey has called the actions of these drivers "arrogant and reprehensible".

“I’m happy to take up the issue of demerit point penalties with my department and discuss options, in consultation with our transport accessibility reference groups," he said.

A total of 3900 fines of up to $261 have been issued by police and Brisbane parking officers since January 2016.

No Permit No Park campaign group spokeswoman Elisha Wright said Queensland needs to follow NSW' lead.

Currently drivers who use disability parking spaces without a merit face demerit points.

“There have been a number of surveys about fines versus demerit points and all of them have pretty much concluded that people fear losing a demerit point more than they do having to pay a fine,” Ms Wright said.
