While I imagine your situation is not a fun one to be in, it is not
sensible to restrict everyone because of one person's disability,
rather just to accommodate that person in society as best as possible
(such as by the existence of public transport, in your case).


Or shoot the moronic little ****; not because he's disabled but because he
wants to drag the world down to his own sorry state. It's the typical "if I
can't then no one else should be allowed to" attitude that bedevils progress
in the UK.


While I have sympathy for solar penguin in terms of his disability, I
have to agree wholeheartedly with this. I absolutely detest the
attitude described, and it is directly responsible for such a lot of
the misery in the world today. It's so totally unnecessary. If solar
penguin did drive, no doubt he'd be one of the ****s who got arsey
with anyone who ever overtook him, no matter whether they did it
safely or not. "If I don't have the skill to go above 37mph in a NSL
then I'm damned if I'm going to let anyone else go any faster."
Despicable.
