When you receive a handicap permit, you’re the only one who is legally allowed to use it. You can use it as either the driver or passenger of a vehicle, but you must be present when the placard is displayed. However, quarrels over handicapped parking spaces happen way too often with people wanting to park closer to the entrance.
A 21-year-old Redditor who lost a leg and a couple of fingers due to a very bad car accident has recently experienced a confrontation like this. One day, she went out to the store with her family. “I have trouble walking without getting tired so it really helps to park close to the door. Today I did so and unknowingly took the space from someone who was circling back around for it,” she wrote on the AITA subreddit, referring to a handicap parking space.
“Apparently the man had been looking for a close space and had missed the one I took and went down and around,” the Redditor wrote. The man confronted her, told her she had no respect and ordered her to move. This is when the quarrel reached the boiling point, and the author was ready to prove her point straight in his face.
Recently, a 21 Y.O. woman asked if she went too far by taking off her leg and showing it to the man who confronted her for taking a handicap parking space
