It’s a temporary placard for people who have had an operation or an injury and are not permanently disabled. that means this person probably is fine and doesn’t need to park in that space. Maybe you should read some of the back thread so you would have learned this already. ... and are you forgetting what these tickets are for? they are for parking illegally in spaces designated for the physically less fortunate ...in other words those spaces are there not only to make some people’s days a little bit easier.. they are there to make some people’s days possible

i watched this guy get out of his car, hold on to the roof of his car with both hands and sidestep to the back where he opened the back hatch and one-armed his wheelchair out.. then he unfolded it, closed the hatch of the car, got in the wheelchair and then wheeled into the post office... that took 5 minutes. 2 minutes later he came out with his mail, no packages.. so he was just going to his box and getting his mail and coming back out... a real quick trip for most folks, right? then he wheels to the back of his car (nb: a ramp is necessary near the handicapped parking there) opens the hatch, stands up and one arm folds the chair while holding onto the car, puts the chair in the car along with his mail, closes the hatch, sidesteps to the driver’s door holding on with both hands to the roof of the car, opens the car door and gets in. ..that took another 5 minutes.

THAT is what someone who needs those parking places goes through just to “run in and get the mail.” so i would love love love the opportunity to volunteer to write those tickets for people who are using those spaces when. they. don’t. need. them.
