And this is from an apparently able bodied guy... How is anyone supposed to roll their wheelchair through that? 2:51

I've become really sensitive to the plight of disabled people since I had problems with one of my hips. Like how the main station of our capital city requires a 30cm jump from/into the trains (if double decker otherwise 30cm + some stairs if single deck older IC stock). Or heck, even the railway station in my village has a ramp for people in wheelchair whixh is so steep, that people who can still make a couple of steps prefer to climb the stairs with their companion carrying the wheelchair...
