[quote=Anonymous]Live in Bethesda.  Almost every time I go out, I see cars without handicapped tags or placards parked in handicapped spaces.  When I’m with my handicapped kid, we often can’t find a space when we need one.  Yesterday I saw 3 cars in the same parking lot without tags or placards in handicapped spots.  We were able to get a spot but since I actually had 5 minutes I called it in the others to the non-emergency police line.  They said they would send an officer out to enforce the law.  I told the lady I thought $250 for a fine is not nearly high enough in Bethesda - it needs to be more like $2,500.  She said that was a County Council issue, so in my spare time I’ll send them a letter.  She also said I can call a tow company on any car I see parked in a handicapped spot and they will come to tow it.  I have a FT job plus travel and 2 kids one of which is disabled so I don’t have time for that, but wondering if that is true?  ULTIMATELY, I’m trying to understand WHY anyone parks in a handicapped spot when they’re not handicapped.  EVEN for 5 minutes if you’re picking something up.  DO YOU HAVE NO SHAME?![/quote]
