Where do we land on parking in the curbside pickup spot when you're going in to shop? Expected mother spot? Police and veteran spot? Handicap?

That's the only one that's legally binding, so it's not even really an ethics issues.

Oh I see, there's five questions there:

Curbside pickup--Bad
Pregnant--Obviously bad
Police--Good, this shouldn't exist
Veteran--Neutral, this shouldn't really exist either, any handicapped veteran should get a handicapped spot and everyone else can walk.
Handicap--Bad

First two are good.

I figured the law enforcement one is for when they call the cops. Can you get a ticket or towed for parking in that one?

I guess they can tow you for whatever reason they want, but I figure your chances dramatically increase in one of those.
