Hello,

XXXXXXXXXXXX (name blocked out) (thats me!), a wheelchair using teenager, has set up an e-petition campaigning for more accessible public transport to be made available.

Kooldude1122 says -
"Accessible transport is needed to avoid the cost of taxi's and the embarrassment of having to have some else take us there!
The more signatures' on this petition, the more the government will listen to the needs of young and old people alike.
Please pass this message onto anyone you know!"

If you wish to sign, the website address is: http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/transportaccess/

Thank you.

More details from petition creator

We have had enough of having to use and paying extra for taxi's to get us around, we feel that NOW is the time to move transport foreward NOT in 2020 which, as an example, is the suggested time limit by which (in the Disability Dicrimination Act of 1995 and the amendments made in 2005 to which I am now referring to) all (this e-petition is not excluding any other form of public transprt, this is merely an example) rail vehicles must be adapted for a disabled persons wheelchair access.

Dang, I can't sign up... :( I am in the US. But, if your in the UK get over there and sign up.
