Something to think about.
There are, of course, many non-handicapped (sorry, can't think of a better word right now) who have disabled children, brothers, spouses, etc.
Is it OK for them to use the handicapped parking slot when they need to pick up medicine, books, food, (whatever) for their loved one--even if they are not physically in the car with them?
As for me, I would gladly let a mother of a handicapped child park in a handicapped parking place ANY time she wanted to. She has enough to worry about and I am not about to add to her stress.
As members of a civilized society we do have a responsibly for each other. Having lived in societies where they don't care too much about human life or suffering, I can tell you I vastly prefer our own society--faults included.
