LETTER: Stop being selfish in the parking lot

Statesville Record & Landmark - 6/10/2017

Stop being selfish in the parking lot

Will the downright disregard for other people never end?

My fiancee is disabled and frequently has to use a wheelchair. We went to the local Walmart (which by the way has a lot of handicap parking) and parked in a handicap spot and proceeded to shop. When we returned, another vehicle (with a handicap card hanging) had parked right beside us in the no-parking striped section.

We waited for a while and finally had to go get security to find the owner of the car to come move so we could get her wheelchair to our car. I was there again today and noticed that almost anywhere there was room to fit a vehicle, they would park.

How about having a little compassion for those who deserve and need those places and use them legally? They are meant to have ample room beside them for wheelchair access.
