It has been explained to me, at length by a Tomball PD officer, that the paint on the pavement means nothing. Only the sign creates the handicapped space. That was a few years ago and possibly only a Texas thing so, as always, YMMV.
Its the same in Indiana. I dont know if that was the case at the time or not.
I'm not 100% sure, but isn't the blue color and the white outline of a wheelchair the sort of universal symbol for a handicapped spot, or to denote handicapped compliant, like for bathrooms and such?
I agree, the sign is what officially designates the spot for those that are handicapped.
