Today, I had a promo code for a free Redbox movie. Since I knew exactly which movie I wanted, I parked in a handicapped space because it was super close and I was cold. I didn't think anyone would notice, but apparently the cop that parked beside my car did. My free movie cost me $100. FML

Today, I received a $105 parking ticket for being in a handicapped space. The lines were covered by snow, and the sign was on the building twenty feet away. FML

Today, I received a $250 ticket when I parked my car, that has the disabled placard, in a handicapped spot at a Wal-Mart. The officer said she watched me get out of the car and walk to store without appearing to be disabled. I'm 59 years old, have a steel rod in my spine and a prosthetic hip. FML

Today, I searched for free parking near my work for 30 minutes, trying to avoid paying $12 at a pay lot. I scored a spot, but 1 mile away from the office. I trekked through rain, cold, and got to work late. It was a long hard day, crawled back to my car, and had a $30 ticket on my windshield. FML

Today, while working as a parking booth attendant, I decided to be nice and give a woman free parking. I said, "Give me a high five and I'll give you free parking, since I already did the paperwork." She said, "I'd rather pay," with a really disgusted look. I also had to redo the paperwork. FML

Today, I went over to get some ice cream. I found a rare parking spot in front of the store, and even had change in my pocket. After feeding the meter, A lady comes up to me and tells me that the meter was free after 8 o'clock. I paid 50 cents for it. I was 50 cents short for my ice cream. FML

Today, I found a great parking spot but I wasn't sure if it was restricted by any means or of I could just park there for free. I asked a police officer walking by and he told me it was alright, only to come back 4 hours later to find a ticket on my windshield. FML

Today, I parked my car, went to pay for my spot, and returned to my car only to find a parking violation ticket tucked under the windshield wipers. This all happened in less than a minute. FML

Today, I decided to splurge and get valet parking at a fancy restaurant. I got out of the car and gave the man my keys and watched as he slowly backed my car into another car. FML

Today, I was looking for a parking spot and finally found one. Trying to figure out if the spot was legal, I asked a cop that had pulled up. He said it was fine. I came back 3 hours later to a parking ticket. FML

Today, I gave my friend a ride to town so she wouldn't have to pay the $10 to park. While waiting to pick her up, I grabbed a bite to eat. Upon returning to my car, I found a $55 parking ticket on my windshield. FML

Of course it was super close. Handicapped people generally can't get around very well. F their lives if they had to park in a far away normal space because you can't handle twelve seconds of cold.

It's people like you who really piss me the **** off. Handicapped spaces are for people who NEED it. I don't care if you were just running in, you should NEVER park in a handicapped spot you don't need. My father is severely handicapped from his service in Vietnam and has a hard time walking and it pisses me off when people do this kind of shit. There's a special place in hell for people like you.

You're an idiot and a disgrace to the disabled community. I hope you magically shed your handicap so you won't be associated with us anymore. Also, I'm disabled and I can drive. Thanks for reinforcing stereotypes.

YDI for being a dumb spoiled little bitch. And how the *HELL* do you not notice a cop car parked right next to you?! I mean, really. I hate when people park in handicap spots, and they aren't handicapped. Though I suppose blindness counts as a handicap, still, if you are really that blind OP, you should not be out on the road.

I was recently at 7-11, and a cop saw someone park in the handicapped spot. The cop immediately stopped filling his car, walked over to the store, checked to see if the door to the truck was unlocked (it was still running and had the keys in it) and then went into the store and told the woman to move her car. She gave him the "I'm just here for a minute, I'll do it when I'm done line." Now this really pissed the cop off. She got multiple tickets, $300 for parking in the handicapped spot, $150 for leaving an unsecured vehicle with the keys in the ignition, $250 for an obstructed license plate (there was snow piled up on their bumper blocking the license plate) and an order to appear in court for disobeying a lawful order from a peace office (possible jail time, or a fine). It made my day.
