I’ve unfortunately met people before who think those areas are just another parking spot, so honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the real answer.
Comment on Bunch of other empty parking spots and this jerk chooses to park there.

Those trikes are very often ridden by handicapped riders who are entitled to the entire space. Not all handicap vehicles require ramp access on the side. Indeed, the overwhelming majority do not.
Parking the way he did, he effectively added another handicap space to the lot.

He I’d t thought. He parked in a spot clearly marked as no parking, and blocked the spot for those who need it most

How did he block anything?
I could fit a handicap van with a right side ramp into that spot. I could back a handicap van with a left side ramp into that spot. I could pull or back a vehicle with a rear ramp or no ramp into that spot. Yes, he is blocking the ramp access on one side, but I have yet to see a handicap vehicle even equipped with ramps on both sides.
(I think) all three of the spots in the photo are designated handicap parking. There are three (presumably) handicap vehicles parked in those three spots, and yet the way he has parked, there is still room for a fourth.
How is there room for a fourth vehicle in three spaces if he blocked one of them?
