Yeah, in Texas I never once got a cop to come on the nonemergency line. And the parking enforcement were too busy with the street parking tickets to go to private parking lots. The stores didn't care either. The first two times we got trapped I got into screaming matches with the store managers who refused to make an announcement to ask people to move. So that's why she started just not caring about the other people's cars if there was at least enough room to extend the ramp. The ramp wouldn't damage the car if it bumped it. It would detect it and fold back. Maybe a little scratch.

Always heard people, including relatives, complaining about there being empty disabled spots when parking was full or bragging about how they used them and never got a ticket or got a doctor to get them permanent plates, etc., when I was a kid. Never realized how shitty it was until I dated her, though. I won't even get into how much they hated Medicare, Medicaid, social security, or welfare for disabled people, though my ex was a highschool teacher so only had Medicare. A disturbing number of people say disabled people should just be "put out of their misery", calling them "crippleds" or whatever derogatory name, etc. They don't see them as human.

But, I live in Seattle now and rarely see the spots full much less people parking over the line.

That's horrible. I hope your ex migrated away from Texas as well.

Damn that's crazy. In Ohio it's a $500 fine. I would think they would jump all over it.
