Hi Everyone,
All things considered, disabilities are a serious issue, but I think EVs are a part of an enabling technology. Echolocation, electric wheelchairs, electric lifts and ramps for cars and vans, and electric vehicles of all types with adaptations such as "joy sticks" for one handed operation by disabled people are all technologies that help the less able cope with everyday needs and responsibilities. I even saw an electric car on the internet that someone could operate sitting in a wheelchair; the wheelchair could be maneuvered through the back of the vehicle to the front driver's area and secured there as the drivers seat/chair. I expected the more fortunate of us should be thankful we don't have a need for some of this technology, but it's nice to know it's available for those who do need it. Andrew
