This cop was out of line - but there is a problem with handicap parking abuse. Stand by the handicap parking area for a while and see who gets out of the cars. You’ll be amazed.

The problem is the parking spots get filled and then people who really need the spaces have no where to go. My mother uses a walker and can barely walk 100 feet without a rest. More than once the handicap spaces are all full and then we are out of luck.

My mother is in a wheel chair and I drive her around shopping and get her in and out of the car and I don't mind pushing the wheelchair the extra distance but often the handicap spot is better access for helping her into the wheelchair and she is entitled to it and is registered with the license plate and all, but we often can't use the designated spots because someone in a hurry is obviously using some relative or friend's sticker. See it all the time. All the time.
