Re: Government ‘has stripped Paralympians of their Motability vehicles’

the re assessment process ( i have just been through it ) is daft and a lot of it depends on how you fill out the form and that's not as simple as it sounds as you have think about answering the question that should have been asked and not the one printed on the form and then on at interview doing the same thing ignoring the questions and answering what the rules as set out in the legislation ask of you. faliure to do that will end up with loss of part or whole of the allowance.

just for example and i expect what is happening a lot of the time your are asked how far you can walk

a simple thing you would assume but if you say you can go over 20 meters you will lose the car but that is not the real question the real question is can you walk over 20 meters reliably consistently and in a safe manner and with out pain

i expect a lot either because they are not aware of the above answer yes and then try and explain or because they don't want to look weak ( you would be suprised ) answer yes

its not a fair system as it is intentionally deceptive only those who really look though the legislation or have access to good help get through it of course the very very few who intend to cheat know all the right answers so i doubt many of them are affected at all
