:) Just going by what I've been told by store personnel and small businessmen!!!! I'd LOVE it if they'd start fining those people that abuse it!!!
You will be happy to know at least in some areas of Florida, volunteers are given ticket writing powers and are patrolling parking lots specifically looking for handicapped parking space abusers. Fine? $300.00.
As a disabled person, I say: "good job," even though I often leave those spaces vacant for someone that may need them worse than I. A power scooter does require me to park near the store.
