Everyone knows parking spots for people with disabilities exist for a reason, but not everyone seems to care.

When one man tried to help his grandmother get to the bank, a selfish driver shamelessly occupied the only remaining handicapped spot.

Still, he found a clever way to make his point without saying a word.

Keep reading for the full story!

Woman parks in handicapped ramp, has to wait for me to lower grandma and set up her wheelchair.

Gran Gran had a few surgeries recently, which meant she was laying in a hospital bed for a while.

She’s been having trouble moving and hasn’t been able to go to the bank to take care of some things, so I offered to take her.

But parking at the bank wasn’t as straightforward as he hoped.

When we got there, parking was an issue.

It’s a small bank with not nearly enough parking.

So he keeps looking, hoping there’s something he missed before.

I did a few laps to see if there was any available spot — let alone one with enough room to lower the wheelchair and carry Gran to it.

Eventually, I decided to just lower her and park far away.

I did another lap to reach the handicap spot and ramp, and someone was parked there.

Finally, he realizes what needed to be done.

I was tired of doing laps, and that was the only ramp, so I parked behind the dame and calmly lowered and set up the wheelchair.

Then, I helped Granny into her chair.

I only slowed her down by like a minute or two, but I hope she felt at least some shame.

The trip may have taken a little longer, but it was totally worth it.

Can people really not read signs?

Redditors chime in with their thoughts.

Usually it takes some sort of financial punishment to make errant parkers see the error of their ways.

Some people are just shamelessly selfish.

Knowing not to do this should be pretty obvious by this point.

Sometimes you can’t help but smile when justice is finally served.

Ultimately, karma proved its point here.

One can only hope this selfish driver learned a lesson.
