The study covers many aspects of the use of production cars by disabled drivers and passengers, including the problems of access, controls and storage of wheelchairs. It also investigates the extent to which these are met by the adaptations already available for ordinary motor cars, and the potential value of further adaptations and specialized vehicles which are under development and may be expected within the next few years. An assessment is made of the problems which may be encountered by present three wheeler users who change to production cars, with recommendations for the most important developments which will be needed to assist them. The full description of the study has been presented in the report entitled Personal Transport for Disabled People. The present report is a shortened version which summarizes the main findings of the study, with the conclusions reached and recommendations made.
