I would "chip" in at this point that the kind of problems people were
complaining about were mainly to do with some people's wilful lack of
awareness of their surroundings, and that I would expect the mobility
impaired to be more acutely aware of their surroundings than most and
not to be the ones causing these problems.

And my anecdote: being berated for colliding with a woman who had
stopped dead at the bottom of the escalator from Waterloo East to
Waterloo and evidently assumed that I could prevent it from propelling
me into her.
