More often than not when I have hospital appointments (very often) getting 2 buses (1 hour) is way too long and often won't stand a chance to get there, so I do have to rely on taxis to get me there. A taxi could get me there in 20 mins.

Also the same when I do manage to get out, if I need to get home quick (again often), then buses are not always best option.

Having panic attacks when you're out is all too common, it's get home quick as possible again, walking or busing is out of the question. It's the same when you can't move for pain, the list can go on.
