We have times like that, pull into a disabled bay and get out and get all sorts of looks, but then once I lower the car and the ramp is extended and we get our son out it all becomes clear.
DLA and ESA target different people
You can claim parts of DLA while working this is not the case with ESA which is for people who can not work.
Plenty of people have been told they came claims things it doesn't mean they can.
There is no scam your just being picky maybe you should work for atos and i don't see what the problem is with two people claiming for each other if they are helping each other which I bet they are also you make out like extra carers money is a big amount it's not.
Your just like the media anti disability benefits person thinking everyone is scamming because there has been few cases shown.
the biggest scam is how people on jsa get all these rights and can't be refused money but people are sick get screwed over.
In my experience it's difficult to get Disability Living Allowance as the DLA office write to the GP and can also ask a independent GP to do a medical on the claimant. See what NorvenRob said about the trouble his dad had getting DLA.
I agree there are a small minority who manage to fiddle but they always get caught in the end. The majority are genuine and honest claims.

DLA is the one which has the most fraud on it but even so it's maybe 5% max not what the government will try a pitch.
Incorrect. Official statistics for fraud relating to DLA is 0.5% - the second lowest. The lowest being state pension which off the top of my head is 0%.
