If they just walked in the door to the elevator bank and theres 15 other people waiting, they just shove their way to the front of the group and think they're entitled to get on first???!?! Drives me insane and nothing in this article touches on that - why not?

I entered a semi croweded elvator but there was room for a few more people. So we stop at another parking garrage level to pick someone up. The doors open and theres these two huge people like 6' 5" and about 300lbs a peice. We looked at them they looked at us then we all starded laughing (us and them) as the middle aged man pressed the door close button. was anyone disrespectfull?

Their strong perfume bath is not ONLY unbearable when they are on it but lingers after they've gotten off. I've gone so far and to not get on the elevator that they are on pretending to have forgotten something!

(I assume I picked that up from numerous old movies.) It's an appealingly old-fashioned phrase, sort of like "Post No Bills".

This not only makes it easier for you both to exit, but it prevents jamming the footrests into people's ankles -- if you shuffle backwards as you pull the chair aboard, you shouldn't step on any toes. It also gives the wheelchair occupant the opportunity to face the door like everyone else instead of having to stare at crotches.
