NU #7 Mobility Cars for Disabled People- Jane Labarrete


Mobility Cars for Disabled People

Who says people with disability can't drive? The idea is to make a car tailored fit with people who have walking disability that instead of breaks and pedals pushed by bare feet, there will be just push buttons to accelerate the car which will be situated on the steering wheel. This will be more likely be an electric car solar powered for economic and environmental efficiency. The car's seat will be tailored fit and attachable that it can be used as an electric wheel chair while not driving. Since the driver's car seat is detachable it will be more comfortable for disabled people to use the same seat for driving and going outside without the hassle of transferring from one seat to another. This is a type of car that will not emit harmful gases to add to its user friendly mechanism perfect for disabled people. This will surely give an advantage for disabled people who want to maximize their movements and will definitely be a great start to break disability barriers. 3
