Handicap parking refers to designated parking spaces reserved for individuals with disabilities. These spaces are typically located close to building entrances to provide easier access for those who may have mobility challenges. To use these spaces, drivers must display a valid disability parking permit or license plate. The purpose of handicap parking is to ensure that people with disabilities have equal access to public facilities and services. These spaces are wider than standard parking spots, allowing for easier entry and exit from vehicles, especially for those who may use wheelchairs or other mobility aids.
