“a. The grant of public assistance is based on the incapacity or disability of the assistance group member making use of the vehicle; and b. The vehicle was used to produce income immediately preceding the onset of incapacity or disability; and c. The individual will more probably than not require the vehicle to produce income at the end of the period of incapacity or disability; and d.
