I ask because I too am guilty of blwoing out people who have no handicapped license plate or sticker on their car using these spaces. i have seen non-hanidcapped people use them. Somehandicapped people do not seem handicapped, whichis understandable to me. But when there is no permit or other I.D. displayed, you can't help but question what the heck they are doing using that space. I always thought such cars were required to display such information so officers would know whether or not to cite the car. If you have such a sticker, simply point it out to any loudmouth who asks. Speaking for myself ( I am not an orthopedic), I resent people who use those spaces but have no permit to do so. I don't know if this helps, but do make sure your permit is obvious to people who do care about who uses those spaces. -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!300!14!James.Womack Internet: James.Womack@f14.n300.z1.fidonet.org
