My daughter has a neurological condition which forces her to use crutches to walk. Since then, I’ve started paying more attention to people parking in handicapped that didn’t appear to have anything wrong with them. Some have stickers and some don’t. I actually see this problem among black and whites, though it seems to be more women than men.

Entitled, ignorant and lazy is not a handicap. But they use it

Don’t judge me. I wanted to show off the new pink eyelashes on my fresh 08 Corolla’s headlights.

f I had a handicap relative that would need that space, I'd be pretty pissed. The people I have seen doing it are both able-bodied black men that are probably in their 20s/30s. One is Army.
I watched a non handicapped car in a handicapped space at Target when I was walking in. Like a meteor landing in your living room, there just so happened to be a lady that had to park in the regular spots using her walker going into the store right in front of the care. I stared at the driver and pointed at the poor lady that had to walk an extra 30 feet.
People with DV plates that don't have the handicapped logo (in TX there is a difference) do it doesn't sit well either. You have PTSD, loser, you can walk an extra 20 feet.

Equally annoying are people with handicap tags who obviously aren’t handicapped.

In her 80's my mother, who was in great physical shape, decided that she needed a handicap tag because so many of the others in the bowling league and card club etc. were getting them. She approached her doctor on the subject and she obtained one. When she told me that she had obtained one she also said that she wasn't going to use it unless she was in a larger city nearby because she didn't know what to say if one of her friends noticed it and wanted to know what her handicap was. I told her to tell them it was "mental". She dropped the subject.
She remained if good health until she suffered a stroke at the age of 99.

Agree. This always raises my blood pressure!! It's a damn shame business don't try to monitor and enforce it; as well as, the fact that LEO don't issue tickets. It would be good revenue source. I received one in big city once, $250, rushing to meeting because I didn't see sign.
I usually tell people that the cops we're giving out tickets this week- it gets their attention !

I call it reparations, 3rd degree and consider us all square, all done.

I go up to them and ask “do you have a limp?” And I smile but then they get it. Don’t care. But they get it. Also thought about getting some of those really really sticky stickers and slapping them on their window. Make them to say you’re in a handicap spot, arse, or something to that effect.
They have no manners, etiquette, courh, whatever you want to call it, they don’t have it. They don’t even know what those words mean. In another generation, they’ll be completely feral.

The curb side delivery folks have wiped out half of all handicapped parking spots. I will readily park in a curbside spot no problem. Backs a wreck

My wife has 20/400 vision due to a degenerative eye disorder and of course cannot drive. A friend recently asked why she doesn't get a handicap parking permit and her reply was "I look totally healthy so when I get out of the car looking healthy, I do not want people thinking I'm acting like a XXXXXXX and faking a handicap".

Nope. They're overwhelmingly higher income types. People who are high achievers and high earners who think they're above the rules that the riffraff have to follow. Steve Jobs was infamous for parking in HC spaces and then daring anyone to do something about it. When someone complained about it when he was at Apple, he led a Captain Queeg-like search for the complainer.

Interesting choice, admitting to multiple felonious acts in a public space like this (depending on state, etc).
Statute of limitations plus I may be full of shite. But the rage one feels when an able bodied person struts out of a HC spot while I can’t find a spot for my wheelchair van
