Are they prepared to fold up a pushchair if a wheelchair user gets on a
bus they are already on?


They certainly should be. If they are not (assuming they are able to
do so), they are then being inconsiderate.


Exactly -- if she is able to do so. If she is on her own then holding the
infant, and bags that were hanging off/put underneath the pushchair, folding
the pushchair, and then manoeuvring the combination on to the bus is not as
easy as some on this newsgroup believe.

Perhaps they'd be happier if those concerned didn't use public transport and
used cars instead.
