As for the parents park they maybe going into the store to pick up a child.

 

To be fair - Countdown had a great deal on kids the other day...buy one, get one half price.

Cars parked in parents' parking space where one of the parents remains in the car while the other (very able and without a kid) walks into the supermarket. 

 

This happens in mobility parks sometimes. If I am going to stay in the vehicle then we park in a normal carpark. 

 

Edit; I should add though don't be too hasty to judge, with the mobility parks not all disabilities are visible or immediately obvious. As for the parents park they maybe going into the store to pick up a child. 

This should probably be in the "makes you smile" thread, but:

I once tore a strip off someone with no permit who had parked in a mobility park at the supermarket (I have a wheelchair bound granddaughter, so am a bit sensitive about these things). They apologised profusely and I went on into the supermarket. When I came back out, they had left and I realised they had been in the park next to the mobility parking space. Oops 😳

Our local supermarket relocated the mobility spaces a couple of years ago after them being in the same spot for decades. 

I came out one day, glared at a driver sitting in a car in the "mobility space" muttered loudly about the rudeness of it all and how it's such a shame that they are unable to get from a carpark space further away etc...

When I got home and told my wife (in a really disgruntled tone, I might add), she mentioned the relocation of the parking spaces...DOH! Those poor people.

YES --- My friend was an Oranga Tamariki (sole) foster mum - such a trooper, been thru hell herself with cancer and all sorts, anyway her foster child at the time, a young infant,  had a disability card because it takes a lot of work to get him in and out of the vehicle, support his head etc etc, -- an overweight elderly man walked up to her with his wife and started abusing her for taking the disability park, ranting and raving about his disability (I mentioned overweight because that's a damn life choice) and how she shouldn't have taken the park -- and to top it off when she calmly explained the parking permit was for the boy and why he needed it, the old prick exclaims "WELL, IT'S PROBABLY BECAUSE YOU HAD HIM TOO LATE AT YOUR AGE" and wobbled off. Ohhh boy. If i was there...

It depends on context and on what they’re trying to say. I was guttered when I stepped off the footpath and got knocked down by a passing car.
