  1. If anyone sees a car parked in a Disabled space, report him/her to www.Handicappedfraud.org   The car will be investigated by DMV and if it's not registered will get a BIG ticket!


  2. What goes around comes around.

  3. Well, if I was a cop, I wouldn't feel too bad if your car was scratched when I had it towed because you didn't have a handicapped plate. Then, when you paid your $500.00 fine for parking there in the first place the money could go to repainting the faded signs. Anyway, you probably need the exercise so park further out in the lot and walk.

  4. You should give up ALL handicapped spots, unless you are actually handicapped, or are driving someone who is, and have the proper permit to park there.

    As you are supposed to know, the handicap spaces are close to the doors for a reason:  Physically handicapped people have a hard time walking for any distance.  

    It doesn't matter what reason they have for needing a handicapped parking permit.  

    If they have one, they have a need for it, and the closer parking space.

    When my mother (who turns 80 in a few months) is in the car, I park in the handicap spaces for her convenience if she's going into a store. If she isn't going in, then I have no right to use a handicap space, and I don't.  Very simple, and nobody is tempted to trash my car for being inconsiderate.

    True, some are terrible drivers, but the spaces are wider to allow for that, and the fact that some handicapped vehicles are pretty big.

    The people who value their cars more than the convenience of parking closer to the door go FARTHER AWAY in the parking lot and take up two, four or even SIX spaces where they don't infuriate people so much with their rudeness.

    Some people who don't follow the simple rules of courtesy find they have a hefty ticket on their car,  broken windows, slashed tires, or huge dents in their improperly parked car.

    And, no, you DON'T know handicapped people if you think it's just fine to make them park farther away than they should need to because you don't feel like walking another 30 feet.

  5. YOU NEED TO START PARKING IN BFE IF YOU WANT 2 SPACES YOU BOAR, THATS WHY PEOPLE LIKE MY PARENTS WHO ARE HANDICAPPED HAVE TO PARK ELSE WHERE YOU BAFOON!

  6. Handicapped people can indeed drive with special additions to their vehicles. But many of them have someone else drive them to their destination. You should try walking sometime instead of worrying about your car so much. Walking clears the mind!! You could benefit from that!!

  7. I hope this isn't a serious question. If it is, you need to get yourself straight. First of all, handicapped people DO drive- that's why they get special license plates and parking spots. Second, you have ONE car, so you get ONE parking spot (NOT in handicapped parking). Third, if you're worried about scratches on your car, it's you problem. Park in the LAST parking spot so you are by no one else. Lastly, I hope you get a ticket for being so lazy and parking in handicapped "to be closer to the door".

  8. you may get away with parking there for now , but if you don't have permit you are in for a heavy fine. Be careful. People don't like it when you take up 2 spots. be thoughtful and walk a little and park correctly.

  9. Park perpendicular (across) both spaces to discourage anyone from trying to squeeze in. Or park on the sidewalk in front of the door.

  10. troll, much?

    remember that some people who park in disabled spaces are able bodied drivers, who need the additional space on the side of the car to fit a wheelchair, for their disabled passenger.

    you probably just park there because you're too lazy to line up your car with the road markings in the normal spaces.

  11. You should be tied to a pole in the center of town and have people encouraged to throw rocks at you.  The mayor of your town run the booth and people would line up and pay 50 cents a rock, or 3 for a dollar, and all the money raised would go toward a fund for people who are disabled.

    Also, if you are remotely serious, think of -  no matter how short the time you are in that handicapped spot, someone who really needs it will:

    1. see if full

    2.  assume it is someone else who is handicapped

    3.  drive to a spot much further and/or not accessible

    4.  put themselves in slightly greater danger

    If you *are* serious, wait 'till ya see my throwing arm...

  12. You don't say you are handicapped,  and if not,  parking there shows you to be a rude and inconsiderate ***.   If you are handicapped,  taking two spaces shows you to be an rude and inconsiderate ***.

    Don't park in handicapped spaces around here if your car isn't properly marked.   My wife and daughter are both handicapped due to back problems,  the daughter is in a wheelchair.   Both of them have the local police departments on speed dial and will park behind you until the police arrive to write the tickets.   Parking in two spaces gets you the prize -  two fines instead of one.

  13. dumba**

  14. Anyone who parks in more than one space (handicapped space or in BFE) should be punished. I drive a big truck and should be allowed to drive it right up your a**. I encourage everyone- If you see someone taking up more than one spot ANYWHERE park as close as you possibly can to their driver's side door so they either have to climb in from the other side or wait for you to come out. That'll teach em.

    Jackass.
