I never have but in the train station near me there are 5 parking spaces and 4 of them are for the handicapped. -- nm - Loyola Dec 15, 14:09
i just... can't. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 15, 14:04
I never do. My thought: I'm glad I'm not allowed to park there -- nm - marcel Dec 15, 14:02
I did it unknowingly at a store I frequented in MD. I feel so bad even now about it. was I blind or something? how'd I miss the sign? - amanda jones Dec 15, 14:02 1
- heh -- nm - Max Dec 15, 14:03
I have parked in the one at our apartment when I have a lot of groceries and there are no other spots available, then moved the car after unloading. - Kim Pine Dec 15, 13:48
I was thinking more like 60%--that's counting the ones where somebody "waits" in the car while another person runs in for "just one thing". - Trisha Dec 15, 13:46 5
- agreed -- nm - TFox Dec 15, 14:00 4
  - Buy the way, has your wife applied for one? - Trisha Dec 15, 14:09 3
    - you know, we need to look into this stuff. her temporary disability benefits just ran out... - TFox Dec 15, 14:13 1
      - Sure - Trisha Dec 15, 14:20
    - ack!! BY, By, by -- nm - Trisha Dec 15, 14:12
I haven't, but I'll use their bathroom stalls if possible/needed. -- nm - Bad Elf JaxSean Dec 15, 13:46 3
- handi stalls are not exclusive, the sign means accessible and they have priority if there is a line -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 15, 13:49 2
  - right. i think it's insane when one sits empty when there's a big line. they are so someone in a wheelchair has access, not *exclusive* access. -- nm - Elf Andie Dec 15, 13:58
  - *taps foot harder* -- nm - Larry Craig in the Handi Stall Dec 15, 13:50
I've tried to cut back on how often I do it while delivering. It's so hard to resist though. -- nm - Qale Dec 15, 13:45 5
- heh -- nm - kilbowl full of jelly Dec 15, 13:47 4
  - If there is only one spot, I absolutely won't. It's when there are 3...4...or more all open I'm like ....can't... resist... -- nm - Qale Dec 15, 13:49 3
    - have you ever been cited? -- nm - zeitgeist Dec 15, 13:52 2
      - No. The last time I was stopped by police for anything was getting into a left turn lane too early. I got a verbal warning. - Qale Dec 15, 13:53 1
        
        The swimming pool where I'm a member just sent out a nasty note to all members about the handicapped spots. - loosilu Dec 15, 13:58
People who have-80%. People who admit-40% -- nm - Amy Dec 15, 13:44
35%. I have not. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 13:43 1
- no, I have. oh well. -- nm - loosilu Dec 15, 13:47
25%. I haven't. -- nm - mara Dec 15, 13:39
I'll say 20%. And yes I have. \ - Eight Vermin a-Vermining Dec 15, 13:38 1
- *ding ding*! I answered 20%. Correct answer (according to Ipsos): 21%! -- nm - Mop (215 lbs) Dec 15, 13:43
