That is an excellent way to handle it.. unfortunately, most don't think as you do. They roll up, and get on.... I think that is what is causing the major problem with the remainder of the guests. As some on here have posted... equality is what they want, and that is what you are doing.. Some seem to confuse equality with preferential treatment to front of the line.. and that is not what equality is all about... You understand & you do it the right way.. God Bless you with all you have to endure
So 3 wheelchair users arrive. The first one is holding back and the first bus leaves without any tie down spaces used. The second bus arrives and the first 2 wheelchair users board because this is the bus they would normally get on. The 3rd wheelchair user is stuck waiting for another bus even though he would have gotten on that bus if he walked and waited in line.
Add in broken lifts/ramps, the crowded bus at the second stop where there is no room for a wheelchair user on the second bus that arrives and other problems that can occur and there is a problem. Letting buses leave with empty tie down spots causes more problems than allowing those spots to be used.
