Half-price taxi cards


Gee,one only finds out problems if first experienced by oneself or somebody else tells you. I've just been discharged from hospital after a total left hip replacement. I go to the doctor with the facts that I'm not allowed to drive my old manual 4WD for about 6 - 8 weeks because of the op.so I'd like a temporary 6 -8  weeks "taxi card" where - instead of paying full $fare -I can receive a 50% cut on $30 fares about the town etc.. No go apparently! The "disability" has to be permanent,will never improve and more than likely worsen!

How about we instruct our grandkids when they get an interest in health,welfare and care of the aged and possibly politics to get this anomaly rightened.

What a joke when pollies are flying all around the world costing us a fortune and sometimes taking their families business class. I'm sure $8,000 dollars for someones kids to fly business class to Alice Springs would have more than covered your costs.
