huh? america is absolute garbage for wheelchair access, the ADA is absolutely not sufficient
fuckin have fun navigating the average suburb with a wheelchair, you can't even walk to the store in most places
Or roll into the store.
Technically in common disability parlance the motion of movement in a wheel chair is still considered "walking" just like listening to an audiobook is considered "reading" for visually impaired people.
Basically it accepts the whatever means you get to the end product as being a synonyms with the verbs those used by abled people.
Learned this from my librarian buddies.
i may in fact have meant actual walking on two legs, hence why i used the word "walk"
Google tells me that the US is ranked #5 in the world behind Japan, Canada, Germany, and the Netherlands.
In most of America you can't walk to the store even if you don't use a wheelchair. At my old place I could see a grocery store from my house, but it was on the other side of a limited access road, I had to go 1.5miles to a pedestrian overpass to be able to get to it making it a 6 mile walk to get 100 yards.
that was my point, yes
