I suppose you are thinking specifically of those who are in motorized scooters
because they have allowed their weight to exceed the ability of their body to
move it. A regular wheel chair would require some personal effort so they have
to be motorized. I occasionally wondered why people's doctors and insurance
companies arranged for motorized scooters for these people when a gym
membership would have been cheaper and more benefit in the long run (no pun
intended).
