California non-drivers should be recognized as those who have DMV
records stating that they have no permit or license to drive, but
currently hold a California ID only.  As a member of this group I
understand and truly care about our needs and the faults of
employers who are allowed to discriminate against us.  I have
attended many transit meetings and seminars, and I have often been
one of maybe 2 attendees who took public transit to get there.  We
need recognition as a minority so that we are guaranteed input on
decisions that effect us most.
Drivers who wish to take transit are our allies, but, just as we
can't fight their parking tickets, we don't want only sometime or
"choice" riders determining policies that may end up leaving us
out.  People who don't drive but don't care about public transit
may be included in decisions because they exemplify our freedom to
choose, also they assist in promoting alternatives to driving. 
Employers discriminate by requiring vehicles of employees who
sometimes don't even receive compensation for the benefit of the
use of a vehicle that they provide.  Read Lobo versus Tamco.
