Indeed. It would be good to have the information so the people with disabilities can
raise possible concerns.

I expect those having cars possibily not wanting to spend all the day
driving others to the town to buy whatever. People might have needs very
important to them that drivers might feel irrelevant.
We also can't force people with cars to drivers other. Some people might
want just have the car parked the whole week.
