Petition Stop proposed changes to the Motability Scheme
The recent budget has announced taxes on advanced payments and a decrease in mileage allowances. We believe this is unfair to the most vulnerable in society and could affect their independence.
More details
Many disabled people earn considerably less than average and a cost increase could mean they struggle to get a car.
Many disabled people also need to use their car for short journeys, where others may be able to walk, and mileage soon adds up because of this.
While those living in big cities could potentially rely on public transport, public transport is often rare in rural areas, which may potentially take people's independence away.
