Anecdotally, I have personally observed fraud and abuse with the
handicap parking privileges not to mention federal and state
disability entitlements.

I am seeing it more and more and more and more. IMO the only people who
are denying the abuse are the ones benefiting from it.

Yeah, they've caught college athletes using handicap hang tags around
here. Culture of entitlement.
It is probably easy for them to get approval for the tags from the team doctor
when they suffer injuries on the field / court.

It would be an interesting idea to give law enforcement the authority to pull
the tags when they witness their use by people who are obviously capable of
unimpeded movement.

City of Spokane, WA is pulling the privilege of unlimited _no pay_ parking in metered spots. They were losing millions to it.
