    I must admit you are right because all people driving cars are disabled people, public transportation adapted for disabled people doesn’t exist, neither mobility aids.

    And exceptions for cars used by disabled people doesn’t exist either.

    Get real.

    Paratransit is excruciatingly slow and unreliable. Mobility aids don't elevate everyone to the same level as the most able-bodied.

    On another note, you're also ignoring poor transit service in suburban and rural areas.
