No.

But why ask, you WAV dodger you?

I think it can apply to taxis, cos if ten tonne Tessie wanted to be loaded into a WAV, the driver could safely refused cos of her weight.

"refused not on the grounds of the wheelchair but because Tessie had eaten all the pies"

er, what if the person lies and says they are ONLY half a tonne not 3/4's?...
