We went to the Gateway for Lunch after the Frog's clinic visit the other day and when we got back to the van there was a Camry parked right up next to us in a clearly marked No Parking Wheelchair Access spot next to a Fire Hydrant. I was soo mad.
We had gone the rounds inside the Parking garage and couldn't find a spot. Finally lucked out on the one on the street and then that happens. I had to completely pull out of my spot, flip on the hazard lights and load S all while blocking traffic on a one way road!! I was so mad I wrote a snarky PO'd note and slipped it through the window of their car. It did have a handicap tag on the rearview but it had expired in January. How hard is it too look and see a van with a lift parked in the Van HCA stall next to you? Since I was blocking everyone else a security guard came to see what the honking and crap was about. I pointed out my problem and the fact that not only was the tag expired it was a normal car without hand controls and was not used to transport a passenger since the back seat was covered in junk and trash & so was the front passenger seat. Evil aren't I?
He was really sweet, explained what was going on to the other vehicles waiting. Then called the parking PD guy who not only wrote out 3 tickets, illegally parked, expired tag and blocking Hydrant access he also Booted the car! I heard him tell the Security guy that since it had probalby taken me about 15 minutes of hassle to load the Frog in & secure the wheelchair to count that into the hour and if the car was still parked there in 45 minutes have it towed!! I felt sooo vindicated. I should have slid open the door and just deployed the ramp down on their roof then blamed it on the remote and the fact we didn't see their car til we heard the crash cuz the van's so big and we were coming from the wrong direction. LOL
