Comment on Can a drunk handicapped person, who is operating an electric wheelchair, be charged with a DUI? by smommeee

yes they can, and do. I’m in a wheelchair, and they’re not as easy to operate as you may think. You don’t get instructions with them. Thus:holes in my walls from learning. I don’t slur anymore, but I did right after my stroke. I’ve been called a drunk, and was made fun of when I ran into things. The fact is that I get eye migraines and can barely see sometimes, but I don’t drink. Before my illness I drove school buses, city basses, semi trucks, and access buses for the handicapped. Maybe the guy didn’t get a DUI because he passed the Breathalyzer test. You may have just assumed he was drunk because he was weaving, talked funny, and there was a bar close by. Even if he had been drinking, it doesn’t mean he was drunk. If you thought he was, you could have called the cops and let them decide.

hmm that’s a good question i have often thought about that also, and i think that they should be charged with a DUI if they are drunk but I’m sure there is some law around it

Comment on 12 Volt Battery for Electric Mobility Scooter – A14401 by Richard Anderson

Review by Richard Anderson for Shoprider U1 Battery for Scooters Rating: These batteries work fine.
The last pair I purchased on e-bay at a much lower price.
They may have been old or poorly manufactured because they needed recharging so frequently. They lasted only 2 years with only minimum use.
