    So how would you get a handicapped person to a specialized doctor in the center of a city with f-ed up public transport?

    EDIT: The downvotes show me that you don’t have any meaningful answers to that real-world problem.

      By investing in better public transport and by investing in public healthcare.

        That would be nice, but with that town, this does not seem an option. The mayor is a bit … bonkers.

          Mayors change far more easily and frequently than infrastructure.

        I would not want to be too close if my wife tried that. There are reasons she’s got no driving licence.

          Visual disability? Mental instability?

            Visual Disability. Cannot properly estimate distances and speeds. Which is quite a problem for driving anything.

              Wow. While inability to estimate speeds has workarounds, I have no idea what to do with inability to estimate distance other than using only public transit or living in city without cars.

                Well, we don’t live in a city, so we are down to the options “I drive her wherever she needs to go”, or long, LONG trips with the occasional public transport.
