I say this because the DOJ still has problems with questions from the original passage of the ADA in 1990. unfortunately that the way it is. Should it be that way of course not. But government is like time and tide, it waits for no man.
So please don't expect the doors to open and the welcome mats come out on The Ides of March. Most Title II and III entities don't even know the regs have changed.
And so it goes

Which is exactly why I'd like to ask the questions! At least they might get a glimpse of what they need to be thinking about and preparing for. For whatever good it might do.
I've said since I first read the new rules, that I didn't think much would change until we have a bunch of lawsuits...
I had an interesting conversation yesterday. There was a Hoveround serviceman here at the retirement community where I live, so I stopped him (on my Seg <G>) to ask him if he was aware that the Missouri Department of Conservation has classified their product as EPAMDs and are regulating them as such... The permits and 3 mph speed limit really raised his eyebrows. It was all news to him, but he made note of the matter.
His curiosity about the segway was hilarious, so I sent him to the DRAFT site...
