Proposal to help disabled get behind the wheel

Chen Ruhuang, 40, of Fuding, Fujian province, loves the feeling of freedom that comes with driving a car.

Chen, who uses a wheelchair because his legs are paralyzed, said his province has no driving schools for the disabled so he had to go to one in Nanchang, Jiangxi province, last year. The trips and lessons cost him more than 10,000 yuan ($1,600).

"I enjoy sitting behind the wheel, but the process of getting a drivers license is very awkward," Chen said.
