Illegal Use of Handicapped Placards

Posted on August 14, 2007 in Ettiquette Scoundrels

Do you do anything when you see someone parking in a handicapped space using a placard that isn’t their’s?

Once, in hypomania, I challenged a fellow sitting in a handicap spot. “Do you have a brain disease?” I asked him.

He said he wasn’t sure what I meant. “Well, you don’t have any obvious ~physical~ handicaps, so I was wondering what the hell you were doing in that spot without a placard.”

Scared the hell out of my wife.

Thanks to Sally.
