If you live in Sumter county, the county provides door to door transportation for people with qualifying disabilities at little cost to you. This is an example of a community thru its taxes supporting those who need assistance. There is some screening based on your financial situation as obviously if you can afford to pay for private transportation then the county should not be expected to provide the ride.

Here is the link with an outline of services and how you apply.
