The "Belltown Hellcat," known for his noisy late-night drives in Seattle, was reportedly towed from his apartment complex's garage after parking in a handicapped spot. A Reddit user claimed responsibility for reporting the illegal parking, which led to the car being towed and the rightful spot being returned to a woman with a handicap pass. The driver, Miles Hudson, faces ongoing legal issues and potential fines for noise violations.

Man who yells at handicapped parking user gets instant karma from cop.

A man with an invisible disability legally parked in a handicapped spot and was verbally assaulted by a stranger. The stranger was later arrested for a DUI by a nearby cop. Discrimination against people with disabilities, both visible and invisible, is still prevalent and can take many forms, including ableism. It is important to believe disabled people when they say they need help, avoid ableist language, and prioritize accessibility in all spaces. People with disabilities should evaluate the risks and benefits of disclosing their disabilities and seek resources from organizations like Disability:IN and Invisible Disabilities Association.
