Journal of Visual Impairment and Blindness, v88 n1 p53-68 Jan-Feb 1994

This survey of 110 adults in 24 states examined how adults with visual disabilities arrange transportation, what they perceive to be sources of frustration regarding their nondriving status, how nondriving affects their lifestyles, and the understanding demonstrated by others of the logistical and psychosocial impact of being a nondriver.
