[QUOTE="Star*, post: 459872, member: 4964"] Seriously - I agree. You can't tell. My guess would be to go to those extremes? She must have seen someone - deemed them 100% able bodied and acted on her own worst judgement. Either that or it was her ex husband. She was a large woman, wearing oxygen, had braces on her crutches driving an older van with the windows down on a 110degree day. I'm guessing she wasn't in the best of moods....Like I said we just sat and watched in shock. Shrink wrap MUCH kinder - Here in Columbia? You see someone that APPEARS to be healthy NOT have a tag or placard park in a spot? You get your cell phone out, snap a picture and send it to a number and they WILL get $125 fine - IF the tag comes back that the person REGISTERD to that vehicle does NOT have a handicap placard. Which makes me WORRY greatly - because we are a 1 car household, the car is in MY name and DF is constantly forgetting to hang the placard-----and if you leave it hanging - HE can get a fine for leaving it hang. You're supposed to remove it when you are driving so it's not a hazard and they've been cracking down on that. SO ....I just have to pray he remembers it. We've had people literally Start to come up behind us and snap our picture and I've had to run back and put the placard in the rear view and run up to them and say - WE HAVE IT.......PLACARD POLICE.......(meah) But I will also remind people they are IN a spot because one day......OMG this is priceless.....I'm in line and hold it up because of coupons.....this biker guy is behind me and NOT happy. So I go outside and put stuff in my suv and look up and I'm in the EXPECTANT MOTHER parking spot......(OMG I could have died) and here comes the biker....and looks at me and just shakes his head like "could have guessed THAT".
