After a year of waiting, an Oklahoma man is getting a needed addition to his home.  Bobby Lane received a ticket for parking in his yard last week to load his wheelchair.  On Thursday, the Community Action Agency in Oklahoma City built him a ramp.

He can now roll right out his door and straight to his truck.

"It feels great.  I mean wonderful it's gonna save my knees from a bunch of crawling," said Bobby Lane.

Another Oklahoman gave Lane a lifting device to help him get in and out of his truck.  And, as for that parking violation, a city attorney has offered to help get it waived.
