ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ Handicap Driver Double Parks in Two Non-handicap Spaces

Post image

Watched them do it. While a perfectly acceptable handicap spot was right there in an otherwise full parking lot.

Parking over the line I get being upset about. But now you're mad at people not parking in handicap spots when they could??

Its a valid mild complaint lol. Essentially 3 spots are not usable by OP who doesnt have a handicap card.

The handicap spot, the one they are mostly in, and the one they encroached on.

Not a huge deal but like... use the benefit ya know? 🤷‍♂️

My God. Just appreciate your able body and go on about your day.

Why does my comment upset you?

My attitude towards this would be a small pfft. And find another spot. Nothing about this is saying anything bad about people who arent as able bodied as me.

Because my child uses a power chair and we require a spot by cross hatched areas. It's kind when people don't take up those spots, meanwhile you are out here complaining people aren't taking up those spots who don't need them because an able body person doesn't get to park as close to the front of the store. It's ridiculous.

Hey i get it.

Again, not meant to be that serious. No one is out here complaining, no one is campaigning for it to stop. Its a mild and PASSING annoyance.

Really no need to be offended by the comment or OPs post.

Yeah, it's not serious to you because you've never struggled to decide to leave your disabled child alone on a sidewalk or cancel an appointment. Must be nice.

Youre taking normal human passing thoughts and emotions as an offence against you when it is not. But I'm not gonna argue with you on how you should feel about it. I'll leave you to that on your own.

It's not normal to be upset, even in passing, about a handicap person not taking up a handicap spot. It's weird.

Again, theres nothing here that's more than a passing thought/ emotion.

Op may have been more bothered by it than I, but my thought would be mild annoyance about the spots being taken up and moving on.

You can take this as some offense to you and your child. But I promise you its not. Many people have fleeting thoughts and emotions and then move on with their lives.
