Electrically Assisted Trike

Electrically assisted trike
This is an electrically assisted trike designed specifically to meet the needs of disabled people. Such trikes are ubiquitous in the Netherlands. You can see that whilst a relatively large and fast-moving vehicle like this would be a problem for pedestrians on the footway, it would be extremely vulnerable on the road. Following this man, as I did for some time, it was clear his problems were more than just physical. He was nervous of other people on the path, and he tended to weave from side to side.
