“We uncovered cheating of the system in the Bay Area. “

Duh ... It took them 50 years to find this out?

I’m more concerned about the Illegal Invaders getting Driver’s Licenses.

Illegal immigrants that randomly murder women in SanFran are laughing their butts off.

I didn’t think anything was illegal anymore and that fraud wasn’t that big of a deal...that’s what the left has been telling us.

But what if it’s an illegal alien with an illegal tag? That’s OK, right?

It’s okay as long as he self identifies as a disabled American citizen.

>>Does 1 in 8 California drivers have a disability?

Yes. They have mental disabilities. They have an inflated sense of entitlement and an impaired sense of personal responsibility.

More than half of the voters vote Democrat. Proof of disability to think, right there.

If I eat Gin-soaked raisins for my knees, can I get a disability placard?

Abuse is always bad, but people need to realize there are people who really need these placards who might not look like it to the observer. Case in point my parents, when my dad was alive (he passed in March): they both had Alzheimer’s and they had one caregiver take them places. It was so hard for her to handle them both in parking lots. It was so much better to use the handicapped placard. But let’s say she had brought them into a doctor’s office or someplace and went out to the car alone, she looked perfectly able bodied. So remember caregivers also use it.

I admit to being a little judgey when I see a chihuahua labeled as a service dog (set me straight if that is for real), but I no longer pass judgment if a young able bodied person has a disabled placard - our caregiver was such an angel and it made her job so much easier with the parents.

I call the cops on them here in Ohio. They are all Blacks. There docs give those things out for no reason. It’s a $250 dollar fine. I’ve busted a bunch of them!

Enforcing against abuse is probably the lowest priority on law enforcement’s list. Which is sad, because the fines are quite the money maker, and that money supports the local police.

Then proving it’s abuse is the hard part.
As said above, the psychologist or the audiologist can issue them. What, they’re going to cancel everyone’s placard,
then allow only certain doctors to re-issue them?

The placards expire. They should not be reissued unless it’s justified. Enforcement needs to be stepped up. Fines need to go up. They need to remove the requirement that the driver of the vehicle be contacted by police before issuing a citation. They should allow citations to be given by citizens patrol and code enforcement. I’m sick of the abuse.
