even in systems where there is an official system, think temporary handicap stickers, abuse can be rampant in certain areas. From outright fraud of fake stickers/mirror hangers to just always using a relatives car which has a sticker. the fix is in enforcement backed by real fines. nothing disgusts me more than watching obviously healthy people run from handicap spaces into stores and back out only to watch the little old lady have to hobble from further out because all the spaces are taken. we live in a society where there are people who will abuse a system because they can or they feel entitled to do so because of some perceived offense. considering the technology available today there is zero reason we cannot provide RFID or similar tags that cannot easily be spoofed that is on the dogs collar. where I am we have to have rabies tags on dogs so adding another tag is a non issue
