i am still lucky enough not to require handicap parking and access but that doesn't mean it's non important. and i say "it" because the key thing about "handicap parking and access" is that you can't separate them.

what f'ing good is a "drop off zone for various forms of transportation" for someone who is handicapped but still drives?

whether it's someone in a wheelchair with a properly equipped van or someone with an artificial limb or emphysma or sever asthma who can still drive the same car you do, do you really expect them to wheel or walk from the city hall parkade - if it's open - or the library parkade or canada place or city centre west to the ram even if it's not the middle of winter?
