No one enforces it is the problem I think everywhere. My friend used
to work at wal mart and we chit chatted with the guy who works gathering the
carts. I asked him how many times he sees people that don't look disabled
use the spots an he sail al the time. He also said that he never sees
anyone come through enforcing it. That is the big issue.

In Florida the person who is disabled must be exiting are entering the
vehicle in order to park in the disabled spot. Of course this requires
diligent enforcement, which I am sure everybody is aware is difficult to get.
Just because someone has a tag is not given the authority to park in disabled
spot -- at least in Florida. If your state allows that, maybe you should start
petitioning the lawmakers to change the system.

Oh, I see people with tags all the time and I often wonder to myself
how many of them actually do have a valid reason for having the tag. I
had words with someone at the mall about it one time. A young
woman pulled into a spot with the license plate having the wheelchair thingy
on it. I didn’t see it but did say something to her b/c the whole
parking lot was full and also the handy parking. She said it doesn’t
matter as long as the tag allows her to park there. It sucks that
legally she is right and people don't have the morals to leave the spots for
someone who needs them. I don't care so much about having to park
somewhere else b/c the pushing doesn’t bother me. It's the fact that
there isn't enough room in between cars for me to get my wheelchair and
transfer.

Heyyyy kids........i rocked the
1st day of 2005 by going to the Outback Bowl in Tampa - Wisconsin vs
Geogia, and what a GREAT game and weather. I was in tank top with it
almost 80 degrees...my buddy and i showed up late, but bought two tickets
outside for $25 for both. It was amazing, hardly any wheelchairs, so
i went straight to 50 yardline...kinda baffling coz the disabled parking
was completely full, but i saw only a few chairs, mmmmm....thinkin a lot
of ABs got parking tags!!
Great start to 2005....hope u peoples
have prosperous year!!
