You know what the one thing a wheelchair-bound person never needs?

A fucking chair.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

No, you see, it’s not a full chair, just the backrest. Just in case their wheelchair backrest needs to rest.

A wheelchair's backrest does not have zero depth, so with this design the rollchair user has to sit slightly in front of the people on the left and right. Utter shit.

What would the symbol for "no homeless" look like? A house crossed out twice?

I actually have title blindness. It's a super rare condition

Do you need a special bench for that?

What exactly does that back part do for someone sitting on a chair?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

It holds the little sign up

It might prevent some asshole from walking up behind them and just start wheeling them somewhere.

That's also what brakes are for. But in case a human going with the person in a wheelchair wants/ has to push the wheelchair this also makes it so much more difficult to get in/out of.
