Lapa, I grew up in the Soviet Union too, but I left in '89. I was very young then of course, but I got a good glimpse. I am just saying, there was hardly wheelchair access anywhere--nor were there even good wheelchairs, with legless veterans frequently pushing themselves on pathetic carts. Same thing with prosthetics, very bad quality. The "invalidka" car for the disabled was a good idea, but it instantly identified the person driving it. The car itself was worse than a Zaporozhets..my opinion of course.
