Perk Pomerko Helps Wheelchair Students Drive Ahead
Walter Pomerko of the University of Miami trains disabled high and college students to drive using adaptive equipment. John, Christine, and Larry, all wheelchair users with severe injuries, learn to start, accelerate, and brake, gaining independence and social connection. Pomerko’s work, echoed by a columnist, urges better road safety and contrasts disability courage with anti-war sentiment.
