handicapped spaces
Accessible parking spots
Handicapped spaces are parking spots reserved for people with disabilities, typically located near building entrances and marked with the wheelchair symbol.
The spaces are wider than standard spots to accommodate wheelchair lifts and mobility equipment.
Using one without a permit invites fines and social scorn: Some jerk parked in the handicapped space.
Also called disabled parking or accessible parking.
