LOL! That sounded like a typical Larry David moment.

I go to the same bank branch every week and have been for the last 10 years, I know everyone in there by 1st name

So this one week I pull in with my MINI and park in what used to be a Handicap spot, they moved the handicap spot about 6 months earlier around the bend where was more room. This old space still has the blue paint but the sign and paint are gone.

I am at the counter filling out my paperwork before going to the counter. This lady walks in and says very loudly, "I am sure you think you can get away with things in your really cute car, but you parked in a Handicap spot and that is just wrong."

She was expecting everyone to gang up on me.

I looked at her for a long time, I really did not know what she was talking about. I then asked her where she thought the handicap space I parked in was. She indicated the old Handicap spot.
Then 1/2 the people in the bank chimed in and told her that was not a handicap spot, they were around the corner.

I never said another word to her, nor did I even look at her, I walked up to the teller window and began my transactions never uttering another word.

The woman was down 2 windows from me in the process of her transaction.

She came over to me an apologized after that. I just smiled and agreed.



As far as others using them and appearing to be able bodied. Thats their business, I personally park as far away as possible when at the mall or stores in general. (The bank has limited parking so I was not going for the closest spot there, just the empty one, now that my office is 1/2 mile away from the same bank branch I walk over every Friday from my office. )

The exercise does me good.
