A Quote by Mohammed Saeed Harib
Wheelchairs can have a huge impact on keeping people safe, because many who use them cannot move independently. They have mobility restrictions and they're on the floor relying on someone to pick them up. So, when they're in their wheelchairs, they feel a lot safer and more independant.

I mean, I understand that because they're disadvantaged that they deserve their own parking spots, but do they have to make them so wide? I never understood how these people were allowed to drive cars but they get these really neat chairs with wheels and they're still not happy, so instead of parking their wheelchairs in the designated spots, they upstage us normal people and get the best parking spots with vehicles that are clearly too sophisticated for them to be handling.
