I got a car when i was a teenager new. Then I drove it for 10 years.

But then I sold it because i don't like having a car and it's expensive.

So now I use Uber Comfort. Which seems to work well for me. It's cheaper than owning a car. But mostly it's just easier.

I've never tried biking around or having a scooter or something.

How do you guys get around?
 
My Mama drives me. My Dad has driven me before but I typically try to avoid that situation. It can get stressful to put it mildly. I used to have a motorbike ,but we had to get rid of those.
 
Accessible transit for adults with disabilities mostly - It's run by my city's public transit system and operates a bit like a ride share but where you have to book trips 24-72 hours ahead of time, and it only costs as much as the bus per trip.

For sudden trips like urgent medical care or if i miss my paratransit ride, i try to have money set aside for a taxi.

Before I had mobility impairments I used to take the regular bus or light rail train, rode my bike, and walked a lot.
 
I currently need my Uncle or another family member to drive for me. Though not being able to drive is limiting. Getting a licence would help with me having more independence. Something to look forward to.
