Disabled In Action ,.. in Phialdelphia , Pa   came up with this 
brainstorm when trying to figger out a good way to handle this problem..
 What we did was have a couple  hundred "Tickets" printed up. The 
tickets  state very clearly that it is not a Police ticket.. but a 
"reminder" that the person is  parked in a handicapped parking space.
That it is against the law to park there as  the personis blocking 
people who  have a real need of this space... and in the future , please 
be more considerate... we then, with the cooperation of the police dept, 
began placing them in windsheilds of illegally parked cars. it really 
helps.  Why not try something like that ?
 I Know that you canprobably get a few copies of those "tickets" from 
the Offic of Civil Rights bearest to you. The people who invented this 
all also work for OCR.  If  you cannot get any  tickets from either of 
those places, let me know and I will  see if i can scratch up a few for 
you.
