what about electric cars exemptions for those
who can prove they can't ambulate; i see
yuppies in their bmws all the time with
handicapped placards who are definitely not handicapped.

Perhaps you know more about their situation than
the little mentioned above, but people who have
something like heart or breathing problems which
allow them to walk short distances just fine but
may be act up if they exert themselves by walking
a greater distance qualify for handicapped
parking permits. It is not limited and should
not be limited to people in wheelchairs or who
look about 80 or 90 hard years old.
Or there are people who can walk 2 blocks with effort, but can't walk 10,
period, without being in extreme pain for the next week. And if you see
one of them going from handicapped parking space to business, you might
think they acquired the placard illegally.
If there's some system in place for electric cabs or something, that would
make the solution more reasonable for those who have disabilities, visible
or invisible.
