that is the oddest complaint i think i've ever seen. what if the person driving the car was just borrowing it from a handicapped person and felt guilty for taking one up? you just can't know.
i despise people who hop out of a car (in a handicapped space, with a handicaspped tag) like they were 20 years old and waltz into the store. i hate it more because i can't quite bring myself to call BS on them. for all i know, they can't see more than 5 feet iin front of them or have some other malady that i am ignorant of.
my mother in law uses her husband's handicapped rear-view sticker to park in the good spaces. she is perfecctly healthy.
me? i generally pick a spot at the far end so i can use the walk as exercise. people are just so lazy around here. and it shows in the waistline.
