How true since 1/2 of the drivers dont give a shit and another
portion are on their cell phones making sure that THEIR world goes
around. If I sound cynical, I am way beyond that. I smile and
pleasantly acknowledge everybody I encounter, even phone callers to
my home. I am optimistic that others will learn by seeing a disabled
person beaming the biggest smile and aura in the vicinity. Join me
in this wonderful, painless pleasure!

Disabled parking spots are truly for people who have much
difficulty getting
from the car to the building. I am a quad and am very proud not
to use disabled
parking spaces because I don't need them. I am sure everybody
has an
opinion on disabled spaces but pregnant women, for the most part,
have acceptable
mobility and dont need em.
I picture somebody who can barely with a walker/cane walk as
eligible for
disabled spaces!
I too have a power chair and a van w/a lift. My main concern &
only really,
is that when I return to it, I can get IN IT! I park away from all
& take 2
slots so I'll have plenty of room. My Mom is on oxygen and she and
others like
her NEED those slots!
