Arkansas Disabled Parking Placard — Display Defense
Ark. Code §27-15-303 and §27-51-615 govern disability parking. A vehicle parked in a designated accessible space must display a valid disabled placard or have a disabled license plate. Where the placard is valid but momentarily not visible, courts and hearing officers routinely dismiss upon production. Title II of the ADA further requires reasonable accommodation in administrative procedures. Little Rock's $100 ADA fine is fully defensible with this approach.
Legal basis
Ark. Code §27-15-303, §27-51-615 (disability parking); 28 C.F.R. §35.130 (ADA Title II)
