What is the name of your state?Washington St.
I'm a Retired Disabled veteran working for the U.S. Postal Service and recently we've had improvement to our facility. One of those improvement was two additional parking spaces, one mark HANDICAP in an area were business mail is received. We have an employee parking lot on the other side of the building from where I work that has handicap spaces, however it is too far for me to walk to my area. So I have never parked in that lot. I have a valid handicap placard and parked in this new handicap space for three days. On the third day I was asked not to park there because it was reserve for customers.

Because the employee handicap parking is too far for me to walk can they restrict me from parking in a marked handicap space closer to my area and the facility.

If you do not acquire an answer for this here in the Elder Law section, try posting it in the non-moving violations section of traffic.

Yes and they can tow your car, fine you and fire you.
