Missed a CAB appointment this morning as, after waiting 20 minutes for a bus that supposedly comes every 8, was refused access because there was a pushchair in the wheelchair space. Well, I could see a pushchair in the space but the driver's exact words were 'there's no room for you' followed by 'it's not my fault'. This is after letting 10 non-disabled people go in front of me, and before letting 5 people on at the next stop down the road, which is visible from the stop where I was.
I'm fairly certain that if there was room for those people, there was room for me. I'm also fairly certain that pushchairs can be moved/folded up, a lot easier than a wheelchair can. I'm also fairly certain that I'm meant to have priority over them because of this.
But no, I just get to miss appointments. Ironically, appointments to get DLA sorted out so I can get mobility, use that on motability and not have to deal with buses.
