When I went for my dr. appt. at the hosptital there wasn't any
parking. I found one on the end so my lift could go down. Some
jackass parked next to me so I had to get a stranger drive it out for me.
The thing is the guy made his own spot on the end bc there wasn't
any parking lines. Thank God he was nice but you never know what could
of happened. I even have a sticker on the side of my van asking for
courtisy bc of the lift. I left a not so nice note on his car. I
usually take two spots if I have to so I don't have to worry about the
lift.

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!
