I have a friend asking me if there is anywhere in the DR that sells 4 wheel disability scooters...I searched the forum and no results returned.

Anyone know where to buy one of these in the DR?

Where in the DR is he planning on using it? Most of the DR isn't disability scooter friendly.

Well, little do you know... :laugh:

There was a young guy in Las Terrenas who had his both legs amputated and drove around with the help of his friend in a normal Suzuki Jeep (I don't even know whether it had an automatic transmission...).
He would use a stick with a fork at its end to operate the pedals.

My friend is thinking of coming to Sosua.

I saw someone here with one, he seems to get about alright, I guess it all depends on knowing where you can or cannot go.

Anyways, the question remains the same...anywhere they sell them?

Check with Rocky (send a PM). He may be able to give you contact info for a customer of his who is a paraplegic and gets around Sosua pretty well. I can't seem to remember his name, I think he is an expat from one of the Scandinavian countries.
