DougieB, it is NOT the taxpayers money. The government is not giving us a car, as they did with the blue invalid carriages. The government give us money to help overcome our disabilities. We can spend that on a world cruise if we wish. We can spend it on Taxis instead of getting a car from Motability or anywhere else, many do. There is no obligation to do anything particular with it, because once given, it is our money, not the taxpayers.
