What about those of us that have breathing problems or Heart conditions that make us lack any stamina?...I have 24/7 pain...walking,etc. aggravates the pain and heart problems most of the time...run out of breath and heart races I have a heart condition called(Tachycardia) or really rapid heart rate while resting..more activity faster it gets and chest pain follows...I have good days and bad ones...good days i wont use the spot..bad ones I have to. I use a cane 90 percent of the time depending on how far I have to go. I agree there is a lot of abuse out there..if in doubt call the police and have their card checked or ask but to pick a fight with someone that might be disabled?????...believe me here getting a permit is very hard unless your on deaths door they will only approve you for one if you qualify...for me it was my doctor decided i needed to have one so they filed the paperwork. I know a few people that if they get too worked up they will have a heart attack on the spot...does someone want to be responsible for killing someone just because they have personal doubt if someone qualifies to park??????
