Dear bus drivers,
If you value your toes, lower the bus before getting the ramp out.
The steeper the incline, the harder it is to control my wheelchair. That's just how physics works.

Oh what a perfect time for my PIP renewal to come through

I was sad when the bi flag sticker fell off my wheelchair, but then I got an upgrade.

If they could fit temporary stairs, they could fit a temporary ramp.
There is literally no reason to arbitrarily make this one route inaccessible.

Lots of people at work are off with a mystery cold with a persistent cough and symptoms that last around two weeks...
