Road Trips: How to Plan an Accessible Getaway
  + stars: | 2024-04-12 | by ( Syren Nagakyrie | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
As a disabled, chronically ill, neurodivergent person, I take road trips every year and have learned some tips and tricks along the way. Enterprise, for example, offers hand controls, left foot accelerators, pedal extenders and spinner knobs to facilitate steering. Budget can provide hand controls, spinner knobs, a panoramic mirror, swivel seats and transfer boards. MobilityWorks, an accessible-vehicle and adaptive-equipment dealer, has rental locations in 34 states. For accessibleGO’s rental cars, you can request hand controls and a spinner knob at checkout.

Accessible Nature: A Trail Guide for Disabled Hikers
  + stars: | 2023-06-19 | by ( Syren Nagakyrie | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
I couldn’t find information about hiking as a disabled person, so I spent a lot of time trying to figure it out for myself. Different disabilities — and even people with the same disability — have different needs. A truly wheelchair-accessible trail is flat, wide and has a firm surface with no obstacles. You can often find this information, expressed as a percentage, on park websites or trail apps. A slope over 12 percent may be difficult for people with mobility or cardiopulmonary concerns, and inaccessible for most wheelchair users.
