Here's to hoping that transportation accessibility becomes the norm.

My sis just bought a new van with wheelchair accessibility features  and they are very expensive. Why is there no legislative move to allow for "rebates" or tax breaks or some type of funding for those who, like you say, need it most? It's a shame. And double that for public transportation. How does Uber work with accessibility clients?

I didn't intend to offend.  I was in a wheelchair for over a year. It appeared to me that the Cab Company at least had some form of transportation for you, but you are right there should be a sufficient number of accessible vehicles available...
