The disabled community needs handicap accessible ride services when a taxi cannot cater to their manual/motorized wheelchairs or stretchers. The freedom to go anywhere you please, whenever you please is one that is greatly appreciated by those that are utilizing assistive mobility devices and cannot drive themselves.
According to the Center on Disability, Arizona’s population of people with disabilities is 12.6%, while Phoenix has 10.2% and Tucson with 15.0%. While these numbers look small, they represent a whole demographic of people that need special assistance especially when it comes to accessible transportation.
It can be a challenge for people with disabilities to get to their regular check-ups and other routinary preventive medical care because of travel limitations. It can be hard to fit a mobility aid in a regular taxi cab, and it is definitely a struggle to travel on a stretcher with a private car.
Residents of Mesa, Tempe, Gilbert, Chandler, Queen Creek and Scottsdale that have accessibility needs may not have access to convenient transportation that caters to their wheelchair or stretcher.
Reliable transportation is something we often take for granted. As we mature, this becomes increasingly more important and equally as challenging. For the senior community, it’s vital to have a transportation service that caters to their needs.
