> If we're going to ditch cars, it needs to come with accommodating disabilities
Fair cop. Accessibility matters. We need to design for everyone who needs transport, not just a generic "average person" (ie not disabled).
Let's get creative here. So, a 3-wheeled electric mobility scooter with a trunk, and the option of being fully enclosed and out of the weather? People could drive them right to the door, even if they don't have an indoor garage.
Taxi + ride-hailing app services, run as platform co-ops in some places. But maybe councils could supply apps which aggregate rides from a range of vetted services? Including those that specialise in transporting the disabled?
It's akin to the way a competent council can supply public shopping areas, with a range of independently run food places All of which are inspected for anything that might poison you.
