If you have a handicap sign can yo park all day in a two hour parking spot?

Answer 1

If the sign says two hours they mean two hours. The space is there for the handicapped and meant to be shared. Two hours should be enough for any appointment. With the ease in getting the handicapped signs, there is little enough space as it is. I see so many people using them then jumping out of their cars and running for the store. The sign is meant for the person that was issued the sign, not their kids or who ever.

Answer 2

Sure -- if you want a ticket or if you want to have your car towed. Having a handicapped plate or placard that you hang from the mirror only entitles you to park in designated handicapped parking spots -- nothing more. If the parking spot is marked for two hours, then the rule is two hours (handicapped individuals don't get special treatment there).

Answer 3

In the state of California, a handicap permit entitles one to park in time limit spaces if there are no other handicap spaces available. This also applies to spaces otherwise reserved for other purposes as well, except those for emergency services or for the Postal Service.

Take a look at the DMV webpage noted below for the regulations in California -- of course, if you're not in California, that won't help much! You could also consult with your state DMV to see if there are special regulations in your particular area - not every jurisdiction is the same!

Answer 4

No, it entitles you to park for 2 hours. Just like anyone else. With a handicapped parking permit, you are entitled to park in a reserved area, usually much closer to the store or office complex. Also some self service filling stations will pump your fuel for you.
