Because the same signs used everywhere else just weren’t good enough, I guess. It’s good to know that we will have special spaces just for falling out of a wheelchair.

Also, someone replace the steering wheels with the new jaunty wheelchair in the Oppo logo thanks.

I prefer the new logo and new wording.

I interpret that as “man escaping from hellish alien sphere capsule”. Or possibly “man breakdancing behind raised manhole cover”.

I too prefer the wording but the universality of the old symbol is why it should not be changed. It would be like replacing stop signs with purple circles.

The left is for the handicapped, the right is only for handicapped athletes.

Or “man being chased by Wile E. Coyote can only run with one leg”.

Alex Zanardi is still deeply offended by the new signs. Not a guy I'd want to piss off.

I interpret it as my tax dollars going to waste in a state that is already hard pressed for dollars.

Malloy is insisting that it won’t cost the taxpayer anything.

Also, the state fired all their official sign language interpreters today.

That just makes me think of the South Park episode where everyone has tesitcular cancer

I’ve heard that line before. Unless someone is doing the signs for free, it’s costing somebody something.

Looks like a Pokemon called ‘stickman’ emerging from a Pokeball.

Maybe they could outsource to South Africa.

I would pay a little extra to get the old signs replaced with this, at least in hotel parking lots:

Started by an activist in NY. Allegedly, the standard international symbol for handicapp access created in 1968 depicts a body at rest while the rest of our standardized symbols depict bodies in motion.

Here’s the actual image used by the activist to make her argument . Personally, I don’t see it. Though I do welcome a symbol that has been update to be in line with the rest of the symbols we use as the old one doesn’t really look like it belongs.

It looks like some dude high-stepping over his huge dick. Is that supposed to make the handicapped feel better about themselves?

I keep thinking Portal when I see that.
