There are voices saying, "People who do not think that a wide parking lot is parked and cannot get on and off the car."
Wide-width parking spaces for wheelchair users are not only wheelchair users, but also those who use crutches that can get on and off with the car doors fully open and get pregnant, as well as those who are pregnant. It is also used by people with internal disabilities and elderly people.
