That sucks.
When I pick up my daughter from day care, I often see this lady park in the HC area & she's a soccer mom - mid 30s, able bodied, but thinks that the rules don't apply to her.
I had a bad day & she parked in the HC space when the lot was pretty full (there were avail spots, but you had to walk 2-3 rows over - she usually does this 1/3 of the time) so I parked in the spot to the left of the HC spot & hugged the right line, so my passenger door was like 4 inches from her driver door. She passed me in the hall entry - she was going out & I was going in.
I took my good old time picking up my daughter, talked to the day care teachers, asked the fat lady at the front desk how her day went, even strolled around the different classrooms to find my girl's sippy cup....
When I got outside a good 5-10 minutes later, she was steaming mad, yelling that she couldn't get into her van, how dare I box her in blah blah blah.
I just looked at her and said "Hmmm..that's pretty interesting. You are parked in a HC zone & you're not HC. Don't yell at me. You're the ass-hole" and I took my time, put my daughter safely in her car seat via the drivers side, got her all good & buckled in, found a good radio station, adjusted all the mirrors, fixed my hair, looked for loose change under the seat, & eventually left.
I have not seen her park in the HC space since.
maddog, you're my hero.
