Delivery drivers parking in accessible parking…finally said something today
Was at the newer Starbucks by freshco transcona waiting for a friend when a car pulls up in the accessible spot puts her flashers on and comes inside with her skip bag. Barista told her it’s going to be a while as it was busy. Friend showed up, she sat down so i approached the skip driver and told her she can’t park in that spot without a permit, she says i am just picking up an order and i said i did not care that she was parked illegally and she had to move her car. She said « right now » and I said « yes right now ». So she moved it. She waited 15 mins for the order and in that time someone who needed the spot used it and then left, 4 more delivery drivers parked in it with flashers on to pick up orders. If I was working there i would happily tell them to move their vehicle before they will give them the order.
As a side note my friend uses accessible parking but when she arrived the female skip driver was parked in the spot so she found close enough that she could walk without too much difficulty.
She couldn’t believe I confronted the driver. I couldn’t believe that nobody else does. The entitlement is real.
