Advocates for the disabled in San Francisco are calling for an end to free meter parking for placard holders. It’s logical, but sad. People who are actually handicapped can’t get anywhere near a meter because they’re all taken up by the people pretending to be disabled. Read the article here.
“Current disabled parking placard and blue zone policies are failing to increase access for people with disabilities, and reduce parking availability for all drivers.”
The only way to end the cycle is to take away the incentive. If only there were another way. If only there weren’t so many legitimately selfish and unprincipled people out there.
