Parking ticket ticketed disabled driver

– News and about Quincy from Quincy Quarry News.

Quincy still continuing to diss the disabled?

Courtesy of Quincy Quarry News’ exclusive photographic night vision Night Eye™ system, the Quarry is thus able to exposé that the City of Quincy ticketed a vehicle that was clearly as well as properly displaying a handicapped parking tag while it was parked on Hancock Street adjacent to Quincy Square in Quincy Center.

Per applicable law, handicapped parking is not time-limited; however, sufficient handicapped parking capacity is limited around Quincy Square in Quincy Center, if not also most everywhere else around the Q.

That and in and around Quincy Center handicapped parking is often blocked by double parking delivery vehicles as there is also precious little loading zone parking in Quincy Center, including that the designated handicapping parking in front of the Quincy Center MBTA station is usually instead filled-up with vehicles waiting to pick-up often apparently often able commuters.

Past complaints to City Hall about the lack of both disabled and public parking as well as both relentless as well as all but innumerable exposés published by Quincy Quarry, however, have failed to see City Hall effect only proper actions, including contrite apologies.

And as for the ticketed handicapped driver lodging a complaint over being hit with a parking ticked, one can only imagine how difficult it will likely be for this person to find convenient handicapped parking at City Hall to appear in person at a parking ticket appeal hearing as is required as there is no handicapped parking provided by the City of Quincy immediately adjacent to to City Hall.

Reasons surely include that City Hall has plenty of free parking restricted to its use and thus probably does not feel that there are any parking problems in and around at least Quincy Square.

Karma, however, will soon come a calling as she all but invariably does when the partial demolition of the long condemned Quincy Center MBTA station parking garage is slated to commence on or about the first of July of this year: during the penance of the projected eighteen month-long partial demolition project, City Hall will be losing close to half of its free parking capacity.

As such, expect Quincy Quarry to be monitoring any possible parking space poaching by any City Hall denizens in what little curbside or other side public surface parking remains in Quincy Center in the wake of the Hancock Street Misalignment project.

That and reporting on any such poaching with the stones that only Quincy Quarry has among the local news media.
