people these days if they have the means now have motorised wheel chairs/scooters/buggies that allow them a lot more independence.
Places are now more wheelchair friendly than they used to be but...the same wheels can stop them from exercising. Its kind of a catch 22. You need wheels to get around but they stop you from walking and you have more accidents on them.
I just cant count all the times children (and adults) got injured cos they crashed whether it was in a car, bicycle or scooter. Or a big truck goin over the centre line.
Nobody seems to get injured while walking, unless they just dont look where they are going. People gain proper sense of balance when they are walking, which you dont do while sitting on your butt riding
