Question by Jeff Terri: Is it rude for someone in a electric wheelchair to run my feet over?
I feel sorry for handicapped people who are in a wheelchair but sometimes when I am walking by them or if I am on the bus, they would run my feet over with the electric wheelchair and not watch where they are going!!!!! So is that still rude of them?! I don’t care if they are in a wheelchair and handicapped or not, that doesn’t give them the right to not watch what they are doing?! Its called having manners.

Answer by Natz
Perhaps they did not realise that they run over your feet. Next time try and dodge them. If they did it intentionally then its bad karma on them.

Slider The Unscooter – U8 – Three Wheel Action Scooter – Black

5 Wheel Mobility Scooters — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 05:10:55 +0000

Slider The Unscooter is the Best Action Fitness Product of 2007. A Three-wheel action scooter with removable handle pole and handle bars, and the only one of it’s kind with dual handbrakes, three-wheel steering and ‘Action Decks’ TM technology designed to propel you without your feet touching the ground — Scissor Action: Pivot both feet all the way out then all the way back in — Roller Blading Action: Steer and pivot to the left as you shift your weight to your right leg and push out to the right, then steer and pivot to the right while shifting your weight to your left leg and pushing out to the left — Slalom Action: Same as Roller Blading Action except you shift your weight and both feet to one side then the other – like skiing. Turning: Slow turns are accomplished normally by turning the handlebars in the direction you wish to turn while keeping your feet shoulder width apart. Faster turns will require some practice since the rear wheels will also begin to steer in an arc around the front wheel; use the brakes to slow and begin by turning in the opposite direction (countersteer) to slow the rate at which the back pivots around. Always lean forward and into the direction you wish to go while pushing out with the outside foot. www.unscooter.com
