OK, I've re-read the thread again. If the cop wouldn't ticket a car that was illegally parked in a handicapped slot, I would have contacted the police department again and asked to talk to the officer's supervisor. I would have explained the situation and how the officer would not ticket the vehicle. I'd be willing to bet that there would have been a ticket on that vehicle within an hour. When someone doesn't want to do something, take things to the next level. Eventually, you'll reach the right person who'll see your point and act accordingly.
