PLDB

More of them...all over our trip.  Took a twenty four hour detour to the beach before heading back home.  Within twelve hours I saw these:

Our hotel: Guy illegally idling in the handicapped spaces; ask him to move so I can get in my van.  Yahoo then moves to the drop off/pick up area by the main entrance and hangs out there.


The Beach: Guy in Lexus decides money really can buy you everything.  Including the right to not only park halfway in two different spaces, but to illegally block an accessible space.


Headed Home: And, yet another poor drive thru layout.


Feels so nice to be back home.

Not all parking spaces are equal.

We have been on vacation since Sunday, traveling to TN and SC.  There have been plenty of what I call "parking lot douche bags" - folks or institutions that do not respect the handicapped spots. 

First was this. Truck parked over the ONE accessible space at this Dunkin Donuts in Chatanooga, TN:


So yeah, we kind of just parked... diagnolly.  The employees did not care and I had photographic evidence in case there was a hungry copper nearby. Hehehe. Cops and donuts. 

Then that evening we stopped in the Chik-Fil-A in Augusta, GA.  And there spots were such that if you backed up from the accessible spaces you entered the drive thru. But silly me, why would I back out of a space?!!!!! Ah-hah poor design much? 


AND they took two handicap spaces and made them into regular spaces so as to expand the drive thru!!!

Took the same photo and changed the filter... I feel like the filter made it easier to see the painted over wheelchair spot.  Maybe not.


Lastly (we are only one day four of our trip), there was this clown who decided to park at the zebra next to my van to unload his vehicle.  I was too late to get a picture of his vehicle in the zebra but I got a picture of him walking away from his newfound space, in eyeshot of me.  I call it the walk of shame.

I am trying to do things differently this time around. So I am trying to leave the house more. I saw this sign in the parking lot at the library today and I love it. Reminds me of another sign I saw a couple months ago at a hospital nearby. I really hope this is a trend!
