The manners thread and a recent event made me wonder about this. If you were on a date and he/she parked in a handicapped space or fire lane to go into a restaurant, even though they were perfectly healthy and further spaces were available and it wasn't during a tornado, how would you react ?

Not only would I think they were outrageously inconsiderate , but that's also a sign of supreme physical laziness IMO, which is a huge turn-off for me.

No idea what I'd do, but I'd be looking for a way to end the date post-haste.

Must be me but does this person have a DP plate or one of the ones you hang on the mirror??

Not clear about that part? If not, then they better move their car asap! Just my opinion.

I would think is says something about their character. They obviously are selfish and uncaring to the point where they not only do not care about others but about you either. What will happen at the end of the night when the car is towed? What if the fire is in the restaurant you are going to? What if that handicapped spot is for someone you know? How would he feel if one of these things happened to him and someone else had parked there? I am not sure exactly what I would say but it would be along these lines. If he did not move it after that, I would have to consider it to be a red flag.

I'd think they were a jerk, for one thing.

At a minimum, I would say something. Probably curt and offensive. I find that behavior incredibly rude.

Have to agree with the others. This would be a very serious offense in my book.

I would say something about I did not know they had a handicap. Unless they replied with an explanation of their handicap then it is game over.

I would think they were psychologically handicapped

I don't know if I would necessarily say anything, but it would be a deal breaker for me. I think that is highly inconsiderate for the people who actually need those spots. I would be appalled.

If I were a female I'd order the most expensive stuff on the menu and make sure he picks up the tab.
