No, these people are saying, "Yes, I know I'm not supposed to park here but I'm doing it anyway and I'm turning on my flashers to let you know that I'm one of the entitled!"

There ought to be a special ticket just for them.
I witnessed a perfect reason to never park your car in the fire lane. This was at a mall and a small fire had broken out in the food court. The fire engine pulled up next to the illegally parked car and proceeded to drag their heavy fire hose across the cars hood.

The damage was extensive and I silently cheered for the firemen.
