most prams r either both hands or 1 hand 1 foot. this is a safety measure to ensure that u cant easily fold it with bub inside. If ur public transport has disabled access u wouldn't need to fold it unless u were using it on a very busy bus.

What sort of car do u have? if a wagon, u may not even need to fold it! Sedans are a bit harder bcoz u have to make sure the pram folds down small enough. HTH
