Motorized Wheelchairs

Or must they follow the "rules of the road" like a car or someone on a bicycle? I've been surprised by several people in their motorized wheelchairs/carts when they enter a roadway or intersection. Can't decide if they are very brave or unaware of the danger when they are out in traffic.

Yes, they are pedestrians, at least in MN. I use one daily.

Josep Mora, designer from Barcelona, adapts this vehicle for people with reduced mobility. Watch out the hand break to keep the vehicle standing ...

I contacted several because I want to take a city tour and they all don't have buses with lifts (Grayline Los Angeles, Amazing Adventures, etc.). How is this even legal given that the Unruh Act is even more demanding than the ADA and the ADA stipulates that access must be provided?

Viptours and charters. I know, because my mother used one to do the grand tour of L.A. When contacting them, you have to ask specifically for a bus that is handicapped accessible.Good luck.

#1 Not all do. #2 Morbid obesity is a health problem. #3 Morbid obesity cannot be changed overnight with medication - or even surgery - it takes several years to change - if it can in fact be changed. #4 Many causes of morbid obesity are beyond a person's control. Rarely is morbid obesity caused by overeating or lack of exercise alone - obesity yes - morbid obesity no. #5 A person with morbid obesity health is so compromised that they risk heart attacks and strokes if they walk/stand too long.

20/20 - I did not say people with morbid obesity did not overeat or exercise, but there are other more prominent reasons to factor in with people with morbid obesity. If you used your logic - no one who did anything to cause their disability should receive benefits ---- people who didn't wear seat belts and got into accidents that disabled them, people who dived into water that had no diving posted, people who sped while driving a motorcycle, people who failed to do regular breast exams so their cancer was discovered at a late stage, etc. Do we refuse benefits to children born of drug addicted parents because their parents caused their disability?
