27. So you're upset that someone w/a handi sticker cut in front of you and took a regular spot?
That really makes little sense.

I used to assist an elderly woman for a couple of years twice a week, and she had a handi-tag she would bring with us as it was difficult for her to walk (she had to use a walker after a significant hip injury). It was quite frustrating driving around and around to find a space, they were quite often used up. Often she'd have to wait on the walkway while I got the car, but that made me nervous w/her standing there alone. It's not something you really notice until you need the spot for real. And we watched driver after driver of cars which were sporting handi-tags jumping out of their cars/trucks and running into stores. The only thing we could guess is they snagged it from a relative and then began to feel awfully special...
