Cars were clearly never invented to cater to the needs of disabled people, but in our more enlightened era where disabled people are no longer treated like second class citizens more and more is being across the world to help them to do the things which they should be able to do.
Walking naturally is obviously something disabled people aren't ever going to be able to do, but on the other hand there are plenty of things they could do with regards to technology if only tiny alterations were made to make them disabled friendly.
Driving for example is something that's been out of bounds for handicapped drivers for a long time.
Seeing as using the floor pedals is necessary for driving it was clear to everyone that they wouldn't be able to drive again - or possibly ever if they were unfortunate enough to be born disabled.
But it doesn't take a genius to realize that although the current way cars operate require the use of people's legs, creating one which involved only the top half of a person's body would be far from impossible.
Handicap hand controls can be bought online or from some mechanics and allow a handicapped person the ability to drive once the kit has been installed.
The kit can be installed by a mechanic, or in fact someone with only a relatively rudimentary understanding in how a car operates.
This means that they're very easily accessible by people in all walks of life and it goes a small but significant step in the right direction of allowing disabled people the ability to drive once more!
