Daily Comic Journal: December 30, 2021: “Fortunately I’m Not That Much Of An Asshole.”
I know there are people out there, in the world, who wouldn’t think twice about using a handicap placard to park in a handicap spot even though they weren’t handicapped. Hell, I’m sure there are people out there who aren’t handicapped who wouldn’t think twice about parking in one of those spots even if they didn’t have a placard. Face it, there are a lot of selfish assholes out there.
I’m not trying to paint myself as some “perfect individual” (hoo boy, I’m far from that) but why the hell would anyone who can walk, take a spot reserved for people who have difficulty or can’t walk? I just can’t comprehend an individual who would think of doing that, let alone actually doing it.
Fully agree. My wife has one and it’s kept in the car we share. I don’t use it unless she is with me. One other thing regarding the handicap placard this is misused (more likely ignorance than a$$holery) is that they are only to be hung on the rearview mirror while the car is parked. As you’ve indicated, take it down when you’re driving.
