A wheelchair accessible independence vehicle 100 has an ingress/egress assistance mechanism such as a lift or ramp (Fig. 3, 114) and an elevating roof 134 moveable between a stowed condition and an elevated condition to provide additional vertical space within the vehicle for a carer. The vehicle may be a large passenger van and may comprise a sink, shower, wash table, wet room, toilet, and/or a medicine refrigerator. Additionally, a vehicle for transporting a quarantined person (Fig. 4, 200) is a large passenger van and comprises a segregated interior with a pressure differential between first and second portions (Fig. 5, 222, 224) to influence air flow. The first portion includes the driver’s seat (Fig. 5, 216), accessed via a driver’s door (Fig. 5, 208), and the second portion, accessed via an alternative door (Fig. 5, 212), is for occupation by a quarantined person. The alternative door may be a side door and the partition between the two portions (Fig. 5, 226) may be an air-impermeable screen. The vehicle may comprise an ingress/egress assistance mechanism and the size of the two portions may be changed by reconfiguring the partition.
