Two issues there:
1) This was not a stall in among the others. The room in question was separate and marked with a symbol of a wheelchair being pushed by another person and a sign "Companion Care". Does there need to be a "rule" to enforce compliance, when the intent is so specific?

2) It's fair enough for someone, if all other stalls are taken, to use one designed to take a wheelchair. This was 6am and there was no such crowd. She could have gone another 2m to the Women's.
