Do you use Paratransit?

I was wondering, with the transit system in your area, do you use paratransit?

While I mostly rely on my parents driving me, sometimes I use paratransit for transportation, and I haven't had any issues.
 
"Paratransit is recognized in North America as special transportation services for people with disabilities, often provided as a supplement to fixed-route bus and rail systems by public transit agencies. Paratransit services may vary considerably on the degree of flexibility they provide their customers. At their simplest they may consist of a taxi or small bus that will run along a more or less defined route and then stop to pick up or discharge passengers on request. At the other end of the spectrum—fully demand responsive transport—the most flexible paratransit systems offer on-demand call-up door-to-door service from any origin to any destination in a service area."

I don't but I would in a smaller area where paratransit is the only transit service available (places where the only transit service is for people who cannot drive due to permanent or temporary disability....no regular bus service otherwise).
