    This article is the written equivalent of the soyjak pointing meme. Adds no further insight and serves only to hype up a product that does not yet exist.

    Autonomous vehicles, like trains or subways are indeed very useful for people with disabilities.

      Luckily the train pulls up right next to my disabled grandpa’s house. And it drops him off right at the doctor’s office. No walking required!

      Oh wait.

    Brain transplants into completely healthy bodies could help too, but since neither are available right now, I don’t get what the purpose of this article is.

    More investment in public transit would do this cheaper, better, and quicker.

    In the US we have ADA funding for para transit as well as county and municipal funding. All we have to do is increase it to make paratransit more convenient for the disabled.
