How to push a wheelchair

Hey guys,

hopefuly this is the correct place for this thread... I just ran into an interersting article, with guidelines on how to push a wheelchair (well on how others should push a WC):

Some of the interesting points:

First Steps

Ask. Better yet, wait until I ask. Don't just come up behind me and start pushing.
Understand that you are about to touch a part of my body; imagine someone is pushing you from the middle of your back.
Know that pushing doesn't mean you are in control. You may be pushing, but we are going where I want to go, in a manner that I want to go, at the pace I want to go.

Then it goes to moving: looking on the road, no checking the hotties on the street, hehe, and my favourite: NEVER, EVER let go without telling me first AND without hearing back from me about whether it's OK.

It continues with obstacles, stopping and social stuff, like: Don't speak for me. EVER.

Check it out, I think its really well written
