How can I find help to find and pay for a handicapped van?

Question by snowmom: How can I find help to find and pay for a handicapped van?
I just found out my 95 Tarus will not be able to carry my new electric wheelchair on the back. I am in no way financially able to buy a new van to be customized to carry my chair with me in it, customizing alone is costly, and been told they don't like to customize vans any older than two years old, I wonder if there are any government grants to help?

Can a drunk handicapped person, who is operating an electric wheelchair, be charged with a DUI?

Question by sharnajax: Can a drunk handicapped person, who is operating an electric wheelchair, be charged with a DUI?
I know you can get a dui on a bike or skate board, I am just curious. I just happened to see a drunk person opperating an electric wheelchair today. He was all over the place, in the bushes, in the street. I asked him if he wanted help but he said no in a drunken slur. He said his apartment complex was two miles from the bar and he would make it home in his wheelchair. Then he ran in to the curb. I got him up and going again, but he was really weaving.
