While I agree that the kid mentioned in the article should have access, but the difficult part becomes where do you draw the line at what is a "mental handicap". And who decides if someone has too much of a handicap to use the public busses or not. I wouldn't want to have to be the one deciding that.
It could easily become a bigger problem for the city by allowing it, with the simpler solution ( but not the best one for the people who might need it), is to only allow those with a physical handicap, much easier for them to decide.
