Comments: 0 Prevent Theft of Your Handicapped Placard

If you have a handicapped placard, I would like to suggest that you always lock your car with the windows rolled up, because this is one way that some people get these placards. They simply reach inside a car with the windows rolled down and snatch the placard.

I am only 29 years old and have a handicap place card. I think people should really mind their own business regardless of what they think about the people using the stickers. I am constantly harrased by individuals like those that use this site and they have no idea about my medical conditions because of my age and appearance. Just last week someone in my new neighborhood where I work printed our (...) View more

couldnt bring the form on here, but i can tell you that it is very efficient, clear, to the point. click on send and away it goes. Seems like a serious website , no blogs or comments section, no nonsense. if there are any sensative post's they are not made public. the only thing that's demanded is that you have to show up in court if necesary.

Once again, we have posters on this blog who wish to remind us that there are in fact non-visible disabilities and that persons with them do legitimately park in handicapped parking spaces and/or warn us about the possibility of “judging” others. And once again I provide my stock reply.

1. EVERYONE HERE KNOWS: I seriously doubt that anyone who posts on the blog or reports a possible (...) View more

I am a vet, but my disability is not military related. I have a problem in my spine that makes my legs weak, so therefore can't walk very far with out my walker that I use. Almost everytime my wife and I go shopping we see mostly young people taking a disabled parking spot. And they are never disabled nor have a disabled place card, nor licence plate.
My wife had told me earlier that people (...) View more

I read about your website in the latest DAV magazine, and I applaud your efforts. This is an issue that deserves attention, and I am glad to hear of your success. The law enforcement authorities have a limited amount of time to address this issue, as abusers are usually in and out of the establishment they are patronizing before the autorities have a chance to respond to complaints. As someone (...) View more

Comments: 0 PHOTOS ON PLACARDS & PLATES

Let's elaborating on "oldsarge's" discussion of placards & plates.

Any reason photo with identifying barcode should not be put on placards and plates?

1. A photo would quickly make it clear that you folks with "invisible handicaps" had a valid tag. Anyone who sees you driving or getting in or out of your car knows what you look like anyway. (...) View more
