That's a couple of bad assumptions right there but let's put aside your narrow conception of what disabled means, you're still OK with fucking over some disabled people.
There are disability adapted bikes that cover a wide range of physical disabilities (I've seen up to even only a single arm and head movements). I'm curious what disabilities would actually require exclusively a car for transportation and for which custom bikes wouldn't be enough, do you know of any ?
Bikes require to keep balance. Powered wheelchairs do not.
Yeah, three-wheeled bikes still count as bikes imo, they're much closer to being bikes than cars.
But I have nothing against powered wheelchair obviously, they aren't cars.
