How to get a blue badge
First you need to be able to show a licence or card which proves you are licensed to drive in the UK. You can do this by being invited or registered as a driving instructor, or by being invited to join the driving training course as a trainee.
You can also get a blue badge if you have been driving for less than six months and have passed your theory test, or if you have been driving for longer but not achieved your unrestricted licence.
Passed theory test means you were able to follow the road rules and regulations when taking the test and did not crash into another vehicle during that test. Some tests require only one successful pass at theory test, while others require two passes.
Who can get a blue badge
You need a driving license in most countries that allows you to get a driving license. In some countries, such as the UK, you must have a driving licence for three months before you can apply for a blue badge.
In the United States, you can apply for a blue badge regardless of your age. You do not have to be 18 years old to apply for the badge.
Who can’t can’t get a blue badge: Only people who don’t have an accepted driving licence or who don’t meet the requirements to get an accepted driving licence can apply for a blue badge.
You cannot just take your car and drive to Spain without first getting a Spanish driver’s license. You must first get an international driver’s license (called mientras tres).
Examples of blue badges
There are many types of blue badges, and they can have any kind of value. Some are gift cards to restaurant or store, vehicle license plates, and some are permits to enter specific sites or events.
Most have a value of around $25, so it is easy to find. Some may even be worth more than that!
Bullet point: How to get a blue badge
The easiest way to get a blue badge is to drive or ride in an accident that results in personal injury. It does not matter if you were not responsible for the injury alone, or if you were also involved in the accident that caused the injury. If you were not responsible for the initial injury, then riding or driving in an accident that results in personal injury is going to make you liable for the new injury!
Another way to get a blue badge is to drive or ride with an impaired driver. This occurs when one member of the driver’s household is deemed unfit to drive because of an alcohol or drug problem.
Benefits of having a blue badge
Having a blue badge is an affordable way to protect yourself from high rates of car insurance. By having the blue badge, you are covered under your car insurancePolicy to provide protection against auto insurance fraud.
Auto insurance fraud occurs when someone uses their car to steal another person’s insurance coverage. When someone uses their car as a coverity, they must have auto insurance in order to be protected.
By having the blue badge, you are also covered under roadside service and emergency services. You will also receive lower premiums as long as you remain compliant with your plans!
How much you pay depends on what level of coverage you have. If you need emergency services, you can end up paying more than someone who does not need services.
Profile completeness
Having a complete profile is important to be able to use the blue badge. It does not allow you to create a new account, it must add to your current account, and it must be a verified account.
You can use the blue badge if your profile includes your name, email, phone number, facebook username, facebook password, and country of residence. This is important as you will be able to identify yourself when driving!
Profile completeness is not an easy thing to achieve. If you have more than one social media account or profiles for different people, make sure you set up the correct ones in your app.
If you have recently changed jobs or institutions, make sure you update your profile information.

Faster load times for images and videos
When you download an image or video, it may take some time to be able to open it. A blue badge can speed up this process by only needing to click once.
Many technologies, like Apple’s iBooks application, allow you to mark items as read and unread using only a click. This same concept can apply to apps and images and videos.
By using only a click for the privilege of having an app or image or video fast download, you may save yourself some money in the long run. It also encourages people to use your app or device more since they do not have to wait for the app or device to load before they can use it.
This benefit does not apply if the app or image or video is large (over 5MB). Then you must download it separately.
Unlimited storage for photos and videos
One of the biggest benefits to using the Facebook Blue Badge is how much storage your app and photos and videos will have. With the Facebook Blue Badge, you can store up to 600 photos and videos, as well as 5 GB of other data.
This is a huge benefit for apps, since they can easily have thousands of photos on their device. Saves time spent looking through pictures and videos, right?
App users can gain even more space with recent backup apps such as Dropbox or Google Drive. These apps usually hold around 90 days of use, which is perfect for saving app data when transitioning from your phone to a tablet or desktop.
As mentioned before, only select apps are eligible for this perk. See the blog post below for more information on what apps get this benefit.
