Those of us with invisible handicaps such as heart failure are constantly judged for using their handicapped parking permit. It isn't a scam, and I avoid using mine most of the time because of this judgement.

I can climb into the almost Mighty Freightliner with no problem on most days, but don't ask me to climb a flight of stairs or walk/stand for more than a few minutes at a time without a huge struggle or falling down.....
