Nothing tweaks me quite like seeing a perfectly healthy person parked in a space reserved for the handicapped. J. Tea over at Wizbang shares my sentiments. In his home state of New Hampshire, however, they're doing something about it.

Until January 1, the fine for parking in a handicapped spot without a handicapped license plate or placard was $125.00. We just doubled that, to $250.00.

We also tweaked the enforcement laws, too.

Previously, handicapped people would call the police to complain, and it would usually take a while for the cops to show up and write the ticket. Now all it takes is for someone to submit a photo and a sworn statement documenting the illegal parking, and the police will be delighted to mail the offender a ticket.

Sounds like a heck of an idea to me. I'll be drafting a letter to my representative shortly.
