Millar says in the two years she’s been part of the scheme, she has covered 42,000 miles and doesn’t “overuse” her car.<\/p>\n
“I live an active life, I became disabled when I was younger and have made the best of it,” Millar said.<\/p>\n
“I play basketball, I surf, I support vulnerable people that I have to drive to see.”<\/p>\n
However, she said she is “most concerned” about going to hospital appointments.<\/p>\n
“My specialists are based in Surrey and London, I drive about two to three times a week for treatment or therapy,” Millar added.<\/p>\n
“It’s not possible for me to get a different car with my specifications. I’m a low-income person. I’m in a pickle.”<\/p>\n
She added that she is worried about more vulnerable people than her.<\/p>\n
“It’s not safe for every disabled person to access public transport, especially if you’re vulnerable.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Millar says in the two years she’s been part of the scheme, she has covered 42,000 miles and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":518782,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[84,59,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-518781","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-business","9":"tag-gb","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518781","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=518781"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/518781\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/518782"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=518781"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=518781"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=518781"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
