Parking by a person who is not physically handicapped or who
has parked for a purpose other than discharging or picking up a specific
handicapped person or persons is hereby prohibited on private parking
lots at parking spaces designated for the parking of motor vehicles
carrying handicapped persons by the owner, tenant or other individual,
corporation, partnership or legal entity in lawful possession or control
of such parking lot.
A parking space shall be deemed to be designated for parking
of motor vehicles carrying handicapped persons if a sign indicating
such use is prominently displayed at a parking space, which sign may
be either in words or by a sketch or figure of a wheelchair indicating
that such use of such parking space is intended.
A "handicapped person or persons" shall be deemed to include
all of those persons who are limited or handicapped by reason of any
physical impediment or mental infirmity, certifiable by a medical
doctor, which interferes with or limits such person's mobility or
ability to enter into or alight from a parked motor vehicle or to
move to or from such a vehicle.
Upon conviction of a violation of the provisions of this article,
the person so convicted shall be fined or suffer a penalty which shall
be an amount not in excess of $300.
