I get just as angry when I know that a non-handicapped person has taken-up a handicap parking space because they're too fkn lazy to walk from a parking spot that's located further out. I don't see any difference (in principle) between violating the handicap 'exemption' and violating handicap parking. My main concern though is that if this 'exception' meant for the handicap gets abused enough by those that are not entitled to it, then we could very well lose that 'privilege', keeping in mind that 'they' are ALWAYS watching for ways to disarm us by any means possible.
