Which Car Will Be Best For My Crippled Aunty? by jeromestarks: 6:51pm On Sep 09, 2023
I have an Aunty who is single at 37 due to the fact that she's a cripple. She walks around with crouches. She literally can not move her toes but the legs are there. Just there.

Yesterday, a kind-hearted man promised to buy her a car and she asked me the kinda car that will suit her. Honestly, I don't know. I don't know much able cripples and/or physically challenged people.

So, I decided to come here to seek your opinion.

Which car can a cripple in Nigeria drive?

@nlfpmod

None.... Make she no go cripple or even kill other people

She can get the car and get someone to drive her around..

If she can't use any of her legs, how does she intend to use just two hands to operate the accelerator, brake, steering, gear selector, turn signals, etc?...

If one of her legs was functional, preferably the right one, she won't have much of a problem driving conventional auto-gear vehicles..

But in this instance, kindly tell your aunty it's a matter of urgent national security that she never drives a vehicle....

Try MODIFIED

HONDA CRV OR TOYOTA RAV4

If well modified, she'll enjoy any of those two. They're reliable and doesn't consume much fuel...

The best for her would be a van like a sienna or Odyssey because the van or which ever car she chose to drive will need modifications..

You want to give the mechanics some space to install/modify what they need to be modified.

There's somepeople that drives with their scooter in the driver seat (that is using their scooter as a drivers seat).

There's a company in the U.S that does that wheel chair accessible van/ cars, I think it's called BraunAbility.

You can check out the company and see what they do, that might give you some ideas also.

I will post the link to the company if I find it.

Don't mind all these nay sayers. There are ways automatic car can be customized to suit her needs. Go to YouTube and check it out. I'm also a physically disabled guy and I didn't even need to customize my car

LOL! Did the man ask her to pick a car that she likes or will the man present a car that he has bought already to her? What if people here convince you that Car A is beeter, you relay the information to her but the man gifts her car B?

Using the word crippled to describe someone that is physically challenge is an offensive word.

Are we to choose from the list of the uploaded picture …. I’d say Formula1.
But on a more serious note.
I think the answer might be a hatchback, simply because I’ve seen one before converted to hand pedals for physically challenged person.
