Governments and private companies have come a long way in making our world
more accessible to those with special needs. Most shopping centers and
busy streets have at least a few parking spaces reserved for handicapped
drivers and many public buildings are equipped with ramps designed to
accommodate wheelchairs. In many cities, public transportation is now
available for people in wheelchairs. Automatic doors are now fairly
common in stores and large venues such as stadiums even have elevators
for wheelchairs. Many hotels and apartments have buildings specially
adapted for wheelchair access.
