ARE YOU LEERY OF RIDING ALONE?
I'll tell you the truth...I am a bit leery of riding alone!
There is so many things that can happen like electro-mechanical malfunctions--
we could get stuck in the mud or hung up or get a flat etc.
...that's why I really like to have another person-- a sidekick or caregiver or a personal care assistant riding along with us ---it makes our trips safer and much more enjoyable.
Lets face it...if we can't stand or walk &/or are mobility challenged then we are real easy pickings
for thieves, robbers or assaults. All they need to do is knock us off our ride--and take off!
Once a crook has your chair or scooter it will probably never be found by the police...because there is no registration or license or title to prove your ownership.
If you live near me here is the web site to download your MTA Para transit mobility form

So if you want to go somewhere--join with other mobility impaired folks in your area...and don't ride alone...its a lot more fun and much safer with a buddy.
