What a ridiculous news story! I like to read off-beat news sites for stories that don't normally hit the regular papers. This one might be a urban legend because I can't believe its true. It's from a town in England. A disabled man had his wheelchair custom built because he loved taking his kids to the beach. His regular chair would not move in the sand, so the brilliant man had a chair made with caterpillar treads instead of wheels. He is able to move over the sand with no problem and enjoy days at the beach with his family. When authorities saw his invention, they ordered the wheelchair bound man off any public roads because his chair is too big and the treads move like a tank. He would have to get a tank licence if he wanted to tool around town in his wheelchair. I'm not seeing the resemblance.
