I like the combined height of driver plus stool not to exceed 6'. But what if your driver stands 6'2" without a stool are they then illegal??
Clearly they can not ask about the medical cause of the disability, but the fact that they are impaired is evident. Amusement parks have bars that you must be taller than to ride. A maximum height line/bar to use a provided step stool seems legit to me.
