Believe it or not, some people are in such economic circumstances that they cannot afford a car and all taxes assessed upon the purchase or rental thereof and the fuel necessary to drive it, including taxes. Others cannot drive because they lack a license from the state to do so for various reasons, including vision problems, epilepsy, demonstrated inability to handle a motor vehicle, and simply because they never learned how to drive or don’t find driving necessary or helpful under ordinary circumstances.

Here in Florida we had 4 hurricanes in about 4 months. Amazingly the folks that needed to be evacuated were without undue problems.
Some people need assistance but it is not the govt’s job to ensure the transportation of every citizen. Most especially in places that have wasted billions of taxes dollars through corruption.
