    Disabilities come in many shapes. For certain disabilities, sure a train/public transit might be inferior to cars.

    However I’d say for a majority of cases, public transit is much more hospitable to disabled folks. Many disabilities make driving either impossible, massively impractical, or outright dangerous.

      This post is about autonomous vehicles, which will render this concern obsolete.

      For many disabilities it’s useless due to the fact you still need to get to it to use it.

      They’re saying both are useless for many. Not that driving is better in any way.
