I am appalled that in 2006 the access rights of disabled people are still an issue. Recently I visited Toronto and found parking to be particulary difficult. There were simply not enough designated spots in front of shopping centres or on major streets. We found 2 disability spots on a street 2 blocks long...
Parking on one street (Cumberland) was difficult for this disabled woman because to offload materials we must pull up in front of our destination, not drag buckets from a parking lot. I am disappointed that the rights of the disabled aren't considered. However a sadder aspect of this issue is the problem of able people parking in disability spots for "just a few minutes". The discourtesy is overwhelmingly unethical and selfish. The fines are often simply not punitive. Enough for this rant...
