BF i disagree wholeheartedly with that statement because certain maladies are essentially invisable...and the biggy is arthritus because it affects the joints and makes it excruciating to ambulate ...

all the pain medication being sold today can only put a dent in the pain and render it a little more tolerable but it doesn't totally stop it...

as time continues to march on eventually that same person who wasn't in a wheel chair ends up in one after their joints literally disintegrate....and if you were to yank their pant's down you wont see anything visibly wrong.

the registry of motor vehicles doesn't hand these placards out like candy.

A doctor has to determine your level of disability as reported by specialists who have done many examinations,xrays,mri's and endurance tests on their patients and they basically determine who is qualified to have one.

Have some people sweet talked their doctors into getting them one for a non serious problem....
i'd say yes... but they are periodically reviewed ...
