I plan to call their corporate office tomorrow & complain. I, the paying customer, do not appreciate being treated like a second-class citizen because they don't care for my choice of car. Tough crap. It's a shame & rather surprising since this is a restaurant chain that prints "God Bless America" at the bottom of their receipts. I always patronized them for this reason; I think it takes guts to put that on your receipts in a progressive cesspool like Pittsburgh

I’d have parked there anyway. F**k ‘em.

“Yeah, my Suburban....it’s a hybrid sport-ute and truck. Gotta problem with that, Sparky?”

Park there anyway. Hybrid drivers might be a little unstable but they are perfectly capable of walking a few extra steps for a plate of grits.

Just park there anyway. Tell them it is a hybrid vehicle, because sometimes you have to push it down the street due to the high gas prices.

Park there in a SUV and explain that it IS a hybrid, between a car and a truck...

One could argue that those spaces are for the mentally handicapped.

This is nothing. The next signs will read: “Conservatives need not apply.” Then we’ll reach the final frontier, when signs read: “We don’t serve Christians here...except to the dogs.”

Yup, and I no longer patronize the places that have such signs.

I haven’t seen any hybrid car parking spaces, but I’ve seen and been mildly annoyed at pregnant woman parking spaces, parents of small children parking spaces, and old folks parking spaces.

You’d like this. The owner of Yesterday’s Cafe, in Rutledge, GA, drives a Humvee. The best parking space in the lot has a sign that says, “Reserved for Humvee. All others will be crushed.”

They’re good folks, and they just may have the best fried okra in Georgia.

The one thing that really gets under my skin are the perfectly healthy people who abuse the handicapped spaces. They may have a handicapped sticker for their disabled grandmother, and rightfully so, but that does not entitle them to park there is she is not in the car.

I once asked a police officer about this and he told me that technically they are not breaking the law, because they do have the sticker, so therefore he cannot ticket them for abusing it. However he did admit, that ethically and morally they are definitely in the wrong.
