It’s important to remember that mobility goes beyond the vehicles and providers that move people around. Infrastructure in communities also…
Palermo, like many other European cities these days, offers its citizens a car-sharing service called Amigo Sharing. What makes it different from the other cities, however, is the fact that its authorities claim that this is the first and, so far, the only city on the continent to also offer a specialized branch of this service for disabled drivers.
The story gets even more interesting since this reminder came as part of a press release announcing that the service is back on the market. It turns out that the specially adapted cars were recently returned by the Sicilian tax authorities. There is no explanation, however, on why the vehicles had been seized in the first place.
