Some asshole with no handicap sticker parked in the last available disabled parking spot!!!

144. My moms in a wheelchair

An electric wheelchair, specifically.

I said in my original reply tha wheelchairs need larger spots. But if they’re electric, they don’t need to be closer., do they? The handicapped people who have trouble WALKING that far probably need to be closer.

I think there should be “play” in the tight rules of the ADA (which I rant positively about in another post lower down). For instance, people without wheelchairs park in the WIDE spots. Because they’re aren’t enough regular spots nearby. Why not double the number of close by regular spots at busy places, and put wider handicapped parking spots halfway down the lot?

People in electric wheelchairs aren’t, for the most part, fragile delicate glass. They’re just people.

On edit: most places need, in my experience, more “gutter” ramps. They’ll have 50 handicapped spots and you have to drive hundred yards out of the way to get up the curb.
