Sure but the second I lose my mobility I will put a deer slug through my head.
So risking everyone else's life around you is worth it?
Why not move to a place where low mobility doesn't cut you off from the rest of society?
There's plenty of retirement communities where you can get around with a golf cart. In the 3 biggest cities here in SK, old folk can ride the subways for free, and sometimes you even see them drive mobility scooters on.
Other places I've been have level boarding for buses, but I've never seen someone drive a mobility scooter onto one. Certainly it wouldn't fly in SK.
