So someone with a wheelchair, who doesn't have the pain when walking, should get the spot over someone without it that has to deal with more pain? Yeah... That seems right. Idiot

46, that's a really naive outlook. Just because someone is young doesn't mean they aren't in excruciating pain when they walk. Just because they look healthy doesn't mean they are healthy. For some people, "toughing it out" could mean they only do that one thing for the whole day due to pure exhaustion from walking those extra few metres. That comment makes you an asshat.

46- your comment is a bit ridiculous. I'm almost 31, and have had 3 spinal fusions and a recent surgery to place a spinal cord stimulator in my back. I live with chronic pain that could make someone want to kill themselves. So, since I'm young, I should let the person in the wheelchair take a parking spot? I probably would do that to be kind (I have no doubt I would), but YOU have no idea who is "deserving" of a handicap parking space. Your logic sucks.

Not to be rude, but if you are in a wheel chair you should not be driving alone. I understand some people want to be independent, but I almost lost my ability to walk because an old, handicapped woman was driving alone and had some sort of attack and almost killed me and my sister. It is also rather cruel to tell someone who is terrible pain they need to walk a few extra feet because they look young. If its that hard for you to go to the store, order groceries online or have someone come with you.

Just because you're in a wheelchair doesn't mean you can't drive. I think some older people who have slower reaction times and whatnot shouldn't be driving, but if they're totally capable of functioning normally, except they're in a wheelchair they should still be able to drive.

Hey

My uncle lost use of his legs years ago and therefor has to use a wheelchair, yet he's still driving. Whenever he gets a car, they wire his accelerator and brakes to his steering wheel to where it's kind of like an extra set of signals. He can drive like any other person can, maybe even better because he's more cautious. In your case, it seems to be the lady had a condition that influenced her driving skills in a way a physical disability wouldn't. So don't blame it on her wheelchair, blame it on whatever else she had.

Urm... What? What diagnosis did he give you, if I may ask?

Perdix is suffering from severe sarcasmia. No cure for him, worse luck. It doesn't seem to be contagious though as it's gone right over your head.

#106. Longawalkaphobia. My shrink says it with a Greek accent that makes the bureaucrats swoon and issue me the placard.

Perdix = win.

Yes, because you are still going through puberty. Read a goddamn book.

Clearly 60 isn't the only one, as many, many people have made similar comments.
