Just thought to start a topic giving some explaination for why things are as they are when it comes to getting wheelchair bound people around and through .
Will start with a few one liners, where the solution is the most obvious.
Busses, trains, planes and the like ... first on, last off. It's not about preferential treatment, it's about managing the bulk of the wheelchair and the transfer to seating while there a no people/luggage/handbags cluttering the aisles.
Fire escapes in office buildings ... wait in the stairwell until help (firefighters) arrives. If you are blocking access for others to escape, re-enter your floor and wait for the rush to subside. It's apparently a very lonely place sitting in the stairwell after everyone else has gone.
