Hi John,
But how would a vehicle be identified as non handicapped?

radical thought,
handicap spots should be equiped with a device that if a non handicap parks
there the device scratches their car real good.
knowledge of that would soon free up parking.

Since I got TM, my husband and I have noticed people who should not, parking in
handicap parking. We have also noticed that some restaurants, theaters,
etc., make us travel a lot more from the handicap parking to the front
doors. I think you have to be where you need the parking before you realize
how
important it is. Janice

Parking is my biggest gripe. I use an accessible van and need to get out using
the ramp on the passenger side. 3 times this month someone was parked on the
stripes adjacent to the parking spot. One time I called the police and he
didn't even know how to write a ticket and for what amount ( this is in New
York). Ended up they got a tkt for $250. Once was at the library and we found
the person. This week in the rain I was at the mall. I had to ask a stranger
to pull my car out so I could get into my car. I didn't have time to wait for
the police and security at the mall is never there when you need them.
In Florida where I go for the winter there is always someone in the
handicapped spot at the tennis complex and then they go to play tennis. I used
to be a tennis player and am always at the courts watching or helping the
captain on my former team and I dont have a spot to park in. Cant do anything
about it because there is a placard. Usually I leave a note to say if you are
playing tennis then you shouldn't be in this spot. I feel like the parking
spot commando.
Such is life, Rosalie

Hi,
I got my new placard in the mail today. They are reissued every 5 yrs. At
one time,you had to sign a paper that you were still disabled and return it to
the DMV,and a few weeks later you got the placard. Now they're just
mailed,without knowing if you are even alive.
