Very snarky spot for The Colorado Advisory Council for Persons With Disabilities reminding you that spots for disabled people are there for a reason, and your excuses mean nothing for using them if you don't need them. While it's definitely true those excuses are made, I do have to question whether guilt shaming is the best way to get people to think twice.

I think the insight here is off.
People who justify themselves parking in a disabled spot, already know they're doing the wrong thing. This PSA doesn't tell them anything they're not already aware of. They're assholes, but I reckon the majority are self-aware assholes. I'd like to see something a bit tougher like 'Park in a disabled bay? Prepare to be towed.' And then having their car towed away by a group of disabled workers. Shit, that would be funny.

PermalinkThat would make an amazing stunt. If you want to shame someone, at least make it visceral.
