Good ol Life Time! I see lots of crappy parkers each day at that place. Usually with bikes I see them parked on the sidewalks which they specifically say not to do.

Unacceptable. The access aisle serving an adjacent accessible parking space is not legal motorcycle parking. I assume this is the north gym on 620? If so, it is in Williamson county, and I can't write them a ticket. However, I just recently joined a program with Travis County called the Disabled Parking Enforcement program. I have been deputized by the Travis County Constable with the authority to issue warnings or tickets for three different violations involving accessible parking spaces, including for "Blocking", which is the violation you see here. A $500 fine, which is mandated by Congress, should certainly get their attention.

Although there are some people in the program that spend their weekends driving around looking for people to ticket, I have no intention of ever spending my free time driving around like that. The idea of the program is to educate the public about the disabled community's needs with respect to accessible parking, and that is the main reason why I joined. My primary occupation is accessibility code consulting, so I am able to bring a different perspective than many of the people who joined because of family or friends. I also hope to provide the program as a whole, additional knowledge of the code and how it is applied. I will issue tickets or warnings as appropriate when I happen upon them during my daily activities.

Don't park in handicap spots without legal plates or a placard or in the access aisle, and you have nothing to worry about

Unless it were egregious, I think a fellow Z owner would always get a warning for the first offense And a repeat offender gets zero tolerance.

My grandfather has a handicap van with a 10 foot ramp that extends out so he can drive while in a wheelchair. If I was in his situation I would extend the ramp out and crash into that bike with my wheelchair at full speed. Not sure if he would do that though lol he is nicer than I am
