No they don't. The problem with the wheelchair as I see it. They have to enter, then get parked while others wait. THis will take about 10-20 seconds. Say the doors at least as wide as a Mark II Skytrain, the wheelchair will still slow loading. Maybe the wheelchair spots will be opposite the door which would be the fastest for loading, but unloading they have to backup (say a scooter) I could see problems doing it in enough time.

I think what they could do, is have the cabin come to the unload and do a complete stop with the "Skytrain Chime" after 30 seconds and then it starts moving to the loading area. At the loading area it could stop again for 30 seconds. Of course if people hold the doors, then the entire system will callapse.
