Abstract: A shopping cart for the handicapped. The shopping cart includes a wheeled frame which mounts a basket and wheelchair hitch assembly. The hitch assembly includes a releasable latch which can be manipulated by the handicapped person in the wheelchair for coupling and uncoupling of the wheelchair to the cart. A latch on the proximal end of the draw bar provides for attachment to the frame at positions within a vertical range as required for coupling with individual wheelchairs.
