just because they are in a wheel chair dont mean they dont need shoes lol, some can still walk a short way so they need shoes, just becuase u see someone in a wheel chair doesnt mean they cant walk at all. And the tax question dont know much about that but every one should have to pay a tax wheelchair or not i think

if they can walk a short way; why not get a smaller wheelchair;; or better still push them in a pram

It will be a cold day in hell before we pay vehicle tax on my mothers wheel chair. Its bad enough that insurance wouldnt pay on the chair. As for wearing shoes, why shouldnt they. There feet get cold like everyone elses, and also they would feel naked without there shoes, or at least my mother does. She may be dying of terminal lung cancer, but that shouldnt make her feel any less than a human

The person that posted this never said that people in wheel chairs don't pay tax!!! they were asking if they should!!! It wouldn't be fair if just because you need a wheel chair you didn't pay car taxes.....

what a question. People in wheelchairs do drive sometimes and not all in wheelchairs are there 100%. Handicap people where shoes the same as everyone. 1) it keeps there feet warm, 2)they may not totally be disabled in there feet and can walk some, and 3) its the law!
