Oh puuleeeze!!! So for all of the natsayers, YOU try to roll a wheelchair thru snow, park in a normal parking space and get a walker out of your car with only one hand without being able to open the door all the way, or better yet, park what you feel is a normal distance and walk from your car to the front door whole breathing thru a straw--a normal straw, not one of those big ones for frozen drinks (this will help you experience the joys of not being able to fully breath). You too can experience the joys of traveling as a limited abilities person.
Yes, parking far away can be an ADA issue for us. No, I don't want special treatment but I do want to be able to remain independent and with all of the other buttheads who aren't limited parking up close if there were no reserved spots, I would lose that. As it is, with our country getting older, those spaces fill quicker and quicker so a lot of time I have to park out in what feels to me to be BFE. Then, by the time I get to where I'm going, I'm exhausted and have to cut those trips short because there isn't always accommodations at the store.
Get over yourself and quit whining because you have to park 4 spaces back instead of 2. You probably park in the middle of the isle waiting for someone running a "quick" stop that turns out to be 15 minutes. Go park in a parking space & watch for them to come out!!!
Ok, sorry for the rant, off my soapbox & the alter-personality has left the room lol. So, please don't park in a marked spot, it would be greatly appreciated
