regarding the 100% WAV/hack requirements of some LA's, i did ambulance service PTS work for several years including taking 1 guy to hospital 3 times a week 52 weeks of the year, he was in a wheelchair but never got sent a WAV, he used to transfer to my cars front seat and his chair went in the boot. If anyone should have been a guaranteed WAV passenger it was him. its actually quite condescending to imagine every person in a chair needs to be pushed up a ramp and strapped down like a pallet on a truck........ still, the planners know best |
