Hip or knee replacement may make walking distances difficult but may not prevent a person from riding a motorcycle.  I know of a para who rides a tricked-out 3 wheeler.  Some of the big Harleys are very managable for people with walking difficulties.  It's not always leg strength, but often is balance.   Bill C6 Incomplete since 7/20/68 Leesburg, FL Stress is when you wake up screaming and then you realize you haven't fallen asleep yet. ----- Original Message ----- From: QuadPirate To: quad-list@eskimo.com ; 'Miss Liz' ; Steve Oldaker Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 5:09 PM Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking Yea but if a person has the strength to ride and stop and hold up a motorcycle and we all know know how much balance you need to ride one, why should you trust someone in this condition to even have a motorcycle license if you don't even think it's safe for him to walk then how in the hell is it safe to ride a motorcycle?   Mark    -------Original Message-------   From: Steve Oldaker Date: 02/25/06 15:59:35 To: 'QuadPirate'; quad-list@eskimo.com; 'Miss Liz' Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking   I do not have a problem with this if they are mobility impaired, i.e. heart condition, respiratory condition, or any other ailment that limits their ability to manage significant distances independently.   Steve From: QuadPirate [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 4:28 PM To: quad-list@eskimo.com; 'Miss Liz'; Steve Oldaker Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking Steve did you know they issue motorcycles disabled permits too?   Mark    -------Original Message-------   From: Steve Oldaker Date: 02/25/06 15:10:04 To: 'QuadPirate'; quad-list@eskimo.com; 'Miss Liz' Subject: RE: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking   If one armed people are actually being issued handicap parking permits it is absolutely ridiculous.  There is no justifiable reason by any stretch of the imagination unless they have another disability which effects their mobility.   Steve From: QuadPirate [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 3:33 PM To: quad-list@eskimo.com; Miss Liz Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking That's cool but I would think it's the doctors recommendation that should dictate who is deserving of a disabled permit? I mean maybe not all regular pregnancies deserve these permits but I'm sure some are when you think about it they give one armed people disabled permits but I've never seen any complaints about that.   Mark   -------Original Message-------   From: Miss Liz Date: 02/25/06 13:51:36 To: QuadPirate; quad-list@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking   Dear Mark,   Handicap parking in my area CT,NY,and NJ is totally abused by fake permits, people just running in etc.  I usually park across two spots and hope no one hits me as they are backing out as I traverse the parking lot.   Some stores have "Expectant moms" spots.  Great!!  Pregnancy is NOT a disability requiring a handicap permit. ----- Original Message ----- From: QuadPirate To: quad-list@eskimo.com ; Miss Liz Sent: Saturday, February 25, 2006 2:40 PM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking I'm curious to why this is bugging you?   Mark   -------Original Message-------   From: Miss Liz Date: 02/25/06 13:29:34 To: Quad-List Subject: [QUAD-L] NJ Handicap parking   The local news WCBS_TV did a story @ NJ legislature wanting to put a bill through to let pregnant women park in handicap spaces. I am trying to find out what idiot proposed this idea so I may write a letter. Has anyone heard of this?
