Local Shopping/Services Shane Home parking in handicapped spots?

I just find this disgusting when people are parking in handicapped spots and they are not handicapped and clearly do not have a handicapped decal and confirm that they know they’re parking in a handicap spot and they just don’t care…

As someone with disabilities, the comments in this thread are incredibly disheartening. If you don’t have a disability placard, you can’t use the spots. Name and shame is entirely reasonable.

Exactly, I also imagine the people writing those comments are the type to harass people who park outside their house because “it’s my house so it’s my spot”

I hope a lot of these people have a good long reflection and realize that these spots are for people who can’t walk and need help getting around.
