Encourage people like this to take up mountain biking or skateboarding or something - find out how much of a pain in the ass it is trying to get around on crutches for 8 weeks or so, then use the tiniest scrap of empathy to imagine what it would be like to have that be your permanent experience
To be fair, at least here in Germany, the amount of parking spots for disabled people and the amount of actually disabled people parking don't really seem to match. There's often enough a whole bunch of parking spots empty and like one guy on crutches.
I do get, that planners and regulators need to plan for the "worst case", and that's perfectly fine, but the current situation is certainly a bit wasteful.
Might seem a bit controversial but, I think disabled spots should be the more obvious spots, places in front of shops and on the street.
If you aren't disabled, you should be parked further away, in something like a multistorey carpark.
In an ideal world, there would just be less cars.
Is that a bad attempt at being sarcastic?
Who hurt you?
Stupidity and self-righteous hive minds.
Like displayed here.
You think it's stupid that disabled people have spaces reserved for them because, what, you think you deserve them more? There weren't enough spaces and you would rather a disabled person suffer the consequences than you? You call it a hive mind when everyone disagrees with you. Had you considered that it might be because lots of folk independently decided that you're in the wrong, and that occasionally if everyone disagrees with you you should perhaps admit that there's a possibility that in fact you are in the wrong and everyone else is right. I promise you that there's no secret disagree with AggressivelypPassive discord.
